About Us

Who We Are

Pediatric Palliative Care Coalition (PPCC), a Pennsylvania-based statewide coalition, is a volunteer group of professionals, parents, and community members who provide information and resources for families with children with life-limiting conditions.

Our mission is to provide resources to families, volunteers, and medical professionals caring for children with life-limiting illnesses. We look to a future where all children diagnosed with life-limiting conditions in Pennsylvania will have access to world-class palliative, hospice and end-of-life care.

PPCC is a registered 501(c) (3) not-for-profit organization.
PPCC relies on donations and grants to promote its mission.
