Parent Advisory Council


The PPCC Parent Advisory Council (PAC) is a working group of parents from across Pennsylvania who work with PPCC in the areas of resource creation, fundraising, outreach and advocacy.  Examples include:

  • Reviewing and developing new PPCC Resources including Toolkits
  • Writing short articles for the monthly PPCC newsletter
  • Sending letters as part of our annual fundraising campaign
  • Joining PPCC staff in Harrisburg to raise awareness of pediatric palliative care and hospice.

Interested in Being a PAC Member?


The PAC meets once a month over Zoom throughout the year, taking a summer break in July and August. These informal meetings provide parents with an opportunity to connect with other parents, family caregivers and peers. If you are interesting in joining the PAC, contact Rose Flowers at rose@ppcc-pa.org.
