The community Chaplaincy program is a pastoral outreach service that provides end of life services, burial or memorial services, and other visits, such as hospice, hospital or home visits, to the unaffiliated Jewish community. This program operates in partnership with the Greater Orlando Board of Rabbis and the Jewish Federation of Greater Orlando.
