For this week's Community Conversation (CoCo) we will be joined by the founder of Jacob's Heart, Lori Butterworth.

Hear about the model of care practiced at Jacob's Heart that has helped many families in our community grow in difficult times. Learn how this model can be impactful in our community healing during and post the COVID-19 pandemic.

Jacob’s Heart Children’s Cancer Support Services exists to improve the quality of life for children and support their families in the challenges they face. We provide family-centered care that addresses the emotional, practical, and financial struggles for families of children and teens during treatment, families experiencing anticipatory grief, and those who are bereaved. Since 1998, Jacob’s Heart has provided emotional, practical, financial, and peer support to hundreds of local children with cancer and thousands of their family members. We envision a community where every child with a serious or life-threatening condition has a strong, supported and informed family empowered to fully participate in their care. We strive to inspire compassionate action within local communities to create a safety net of support for the unique needs of each child and family.
