Overview

Mission

The organization provides support, encouragement, information and resources to women and families who are experiencing a high risk pregnancy resulting in hospital bed rest, potential premature birth and neonatal intensive care after delivery.

What it reported doing in 2023

The organization's goal is to prolong pregnancies by reducing the stress levels of antepartum patients on long-term hospital bed rest and to improve health outcomes for premature babies by giving families the resources they need to be involved in their babies' care while they are in the neonatal intensive care unit. They are the only organization in the country providing in-hospital support to families both before and after the birth of a premature infant. High risk hope's programs include bed rest baskets, nicu napsacks, books for babies, bereavement boxes, and hrh bundles. High risk hope serves over 1,500 patients annually at five west central Florida hospitals.

The verdict
