Very Special Kids cares for children with life-threatening conditions by providing a children's hospice and professional support services to families. We help more than 900 families across Victoria with ongoing support that starts from the diagnosis of a child's condition all the way through to discharge or bereavement. All services are free-of-charge. Family support services include counselling, advocacy, sibling support, bereavement support, networking and peer activities, trained family volunteers and specialist care at Very Special Kids Hospice. Very Special Kids Hospice is the only children's hospice in Victoria and we offer families access to planned and emergency respite, as well as end-of-life care.
