Membership

Membership

We welcome and invite parents, caregivers, medical professionals and all interested parties to become PPCC members. The cost is minimal – $25 – but it will help us continue to further our mission of providing resources such as our Care Plan Book and conferences for families, volunteers and medical professionals caring for children with life-limiting illnesses.

Thank you to our members for their commitment to PPCC.
