Families for HoPE, Inc. is a
501(c)(3) nonprofit organization formed to address the needs of families and
children diagnosed with holoprosencephaly (HPE) and related brain
malformations.

|
|
Families for HoPE seeks to provide support for all
stages in the HPE journey:
Families of unborn infants receiving a
diagnosis of HPE
Families of
newborns diagnosed with HPE at birth
Families of infants with delay in diagnosis
of HPE
Families of children with a diagnosis of
HPE
Families of adults with a diagnosis of
HPE
Families grieving the loss of a child with a
diagnosis of HPE
|
| The Families for HoPE logo was designed by Shira Arnold, mother of Cayden. The three family groupings represent various stages in the HPE journey--prenatal diagnosis, infant diagnosed with HPE, and older child diagnosed with HPE. Each family is holding a balloon. As many of our greiving families find comfort in the act of releasing balloons in memory of their beloved children, these balloons represent the infants and children with HPE who are no longer with us. |
