Hazak is the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism's organization for mature Jews. The function of Hazak is to deal with programming for, addressing the needs of, and working with "Senior Citizens," who are members of full service affiliated congregations of the United Synagogue.
Significantly, however, seniors are the most rapidly growing segment of the Jewish population.
Hazak compliments congregational adult education programs with specially designed social, spiritual and educational components geared to and for the senior population of a congregation.
Hazak members not only have the opportunity to meet on a regular basis with peers from their own congregations but with fellow Jews from other affiliated Conservative congregations in their community, region and nation.

HAZAK in Israel February 2008
Feb 12 - 24, 2008 we are having
a truly memorable journey



This outstanding trip is based in Jerusalem for our entire stay and we have daily visits to historical sites throughout the country. We are spending our first Shabbat at our own Fuchsberg Jerusalem Center. It's a great trip, not only for those who have never been Israel, but also for the veteran traveler. We are having numerous opportunities to touch the land, taste the cuisine, feel the energy, smell the air, hear the sounds of the city and see our beloved Israel as we have never seen before, all through the lens of Conservative Judaism!
