Annual Conferences

On the second Sunday of November each year, we celebrate and we educate about the mitzvah to visit the sick by hosting an annual conference in New York City. The conference goals are to inform, inspire and train participants about the life enhancing benefits of this mitzvah. The conference is also a forum for networking and giving chizuk/encouragement to one another.

Teens and 'students' of all ages with diverse backgrounds in bikur cholim, and in Judaism attend; Rabbis and rabbinical students, collegiates, full-time Moms, doctors, teachers, Jewish communal professionals alike, from across New York, the US, and a small international presence, join together to enjoy a day that celebrates life, that teaches skills for living, and that energizes and uplifts.
