##### Video: 2024 WeCare Conference Recap

## Why should I attend this year's conference?

Our healthcare frontlines are suffering. The healthcare professional community has been strained for years, and the pandemic only exacerbated the challenges which continue today. Support for our caregivers has never been more vital!

We are pleased to announce this annual workshop is now returning another year- newly named WeCare Conference to give homage to it's new nonprofit roots in WeCare Nonprofit.  
To continue it's mission, and the mission of WeCare Nonprofit as a whole, this special event is designed to provide an inclusive space for our diverse healthcare community to identify a personal path toward healing, restoration, evidence-based learning, resilience, and fun as a “Thank You” to those who care for our community's health. The workshop will offer belonging, knowledge, and tools to nurture and sustain personal well-being in any healthcare role.

## Co-Founders of MNCares Conference

#### *Now Known as WeCare Conference*

In 2020, as our healthcare community suffered from the realities of providing care during a global pandemic, a group (Minnesota Care's) was formed, with the sole purpose of caring for our caregivers. This coalition of volunteers worked quickly to build a unique event focused on giving back to the people who had given so much. Space was created for connection, pause, healing, and personal growth. This was the beginning of creating an accessible wellbeing event for healthcare professionals and this mission is now carried on by the dedicated team at WeCare. (Conference Co-Founders: Kerry Appleton and Christine Chell)
