Hudson Community Living

Every parent who provides care for their developmentally disabled child lives with this heartbreaking question. Parents find it difficult to plan for the future. It feels impossible to imagine their child living too far away, but they know they won’t be able to care for them at home forever.

They know what their child needs: a level of support that will allow them to live independently, a vibrant social life, a healthy routine, and a community of peers. But, due to the lack of appropriate housing options, solutions have remained elusive. Until now.

Gift of Life NEO
Cardiac Care for Children in the Developing World
 
Gift of Life Northeast Ohio (GoL NEO) serves children and their extended families from the developing world who do not have access to cardiac care.  For these children, GoL NEO is their last hope. GoL NEO has successfully progressed from serving “one child at a time” to helping create children’s heart centers in the developing world.  This model allows for not only training of local surgeons and staff, but helps provide surgical services to more children.  This is the long term goal of GoL NEO.
