Events and Programs

In addition to our regular visits to the sick and elderly, The Jewish Chaplaincy Program works with other organizations and Greater Miami Jewish Federation departments to present and participate in special events throughout the Jewish calendar year. From pre-Shabbat celebrations to festive holiday programs, these meaningful events touch the hearts of recipients and volunteers alike.

Since our mission of caring also extends to caregivers, The Jewish Chaplaincy Program organizes annual conferences on aging for healthcare professionals, clergy, social workers and other concerned individuals. Such programs enhance understanding of difficult topics and increase awareness about helpful resources.

"What are the human passages that occur, as we grow older, beyond the years of reproduction and economic productivity, and how do various cultures mark these transitions? How can we as caregivers, professionals, and clergy mark these transitions powerfully for those we serve to help them find purpose and meaning in their lives?"
