Men’s Winter Education & Empowerment Retreat - Virtual

Join us as we bring together our community's blood brothers to share issues we are dealing with and to learn from each other. All men will benefit from the enhanced camaraderie. You'll have the extraordinary opportunity of being with others who share your condition and challenges. If you're a father, you can join other dads who have already found this experience to be very valuable, as you learn to better parent your child with hemophilia B. With shared perspectives, you'll gain an incredibly strong network of support.

At our Men's Retreat, you'll join our community with its range of diverse backgrounds and experiences. We come together in a brotherhood, defined by the common denominator of the bleeding disorder that has changed our lives. We nurture old friendships and form new connections, as we share our strength and support each other as part of our network, not only during the retreat but on an ongoing basis. You will feel empowered by the journey and you will stand ready to deal with life’s challenges.

Eligibility: Adults, ages 21 and over, living with hemophilia B, including affected men, as well as fathers of affected children, and spouses of affected individuals.

Women’s Fall Education & Empowerment Retreat - Virtual

Join us as we bring together our community's blood sisters to share issues they are dealing with and to learn from each other. Often, women with bleeding disorders are disregarded and not taken seriously, leaving you to suffer with issues that could be treated if diagnosed properly. As mothers, we are often tasked with taking care of everyone in the family. So, when you add in a child with a bleeding disorder, you may be left with little time or energy to remember your own needs.
