Families with critically ill children often need to stay near medical centers for extended periods. This situation can create significant financial challenges, as finding affordable lodging close to treatment facilities is often difficult.

Florida’s Home Away from Home Program aims to help families by providing support with accommodation needs during these challenging times. The program seeks to ease the financial burden on families who must travel for their child’s medical care.

More information about Florida’s Home Away from Home Program is available through the state’s health department resources.
