BERGEN COUNTY CARE FAIR RETURNS
One-stop fair helping residents navigate health, support, & wellness care to take place Sunday, May 4 at Fairleigh Dickenson University
Hackensack, NJ – County Executive James J. Tedesco, III and the Board of County Commissioners officially announce the return of the Bergen County Care Fair, which will take place Sunday, May 4 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Bogota Savings Bank Center on the campus of Fairleigh Dickenson University, 100 University Plaza Drive, Hackensack, NJ.
The Bergen County Care Fair is the largest health care, wellness, and support services event of its kind in Bergen County. A “one-stop” shop for all matters relating to providing “CARE,” the Care Fair will bring together over 250 health care providers, support service resources, and field professionals together to help residents make the necessary connections they need, resulting in better, less costly care and improved wellness for themselves and those they love.
“The return of the Bergen County Care Fair marks an important step forward in our continued commitment to making health, wellness, and support services more accessible to all residents,” said County Executive Jim Tedesco. “Whether you are a parent, senior, veteran, or simply seeking guidance, this event is designed to simplify the process and connect individuals directly with the resources they need.”
Back for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bergen County Care Fair was first developed in response to the difficulty residents experience in navigating the complexities of the support and health care system.
“The Bergen County Care Fair is an opportunity for our residents to become more informed about the wide range of services available to them,” said Commissioner Chairwoman Mary Amoroso. “By bringing together hundreds of providers in one place, we’re making it easier for individuals and families to access the care they need. This event reflects our commitment to building a community that is supportive, inclusive, and well-connected.”
With over 250 health care, wellness, and support service providers expected to exhibit, the 2025 Bergen County Care Fair is poised to present a comprehensive showcase of providers, spanning virtually all health needs and services for physical and mental health for children, adults, singles, families, seniors, veterans, all incomes – indeed, everyone.
Admission and parking will be free and Spanish, and Korean translators will be available on-site; the Bogota Savings Bank Center is handicap accessible.
