Welcome to Almost Home Kids

At Almost Home Kids, our mission is to enhance the lives of children facing serious and ongoing medical challenges.

Almost Home Kids is a not-for-profit children's care center. Founded by parents of medically fragile children; this 10-bed facility is housed in a 4,000 square foot home set on 2 1/2 acres of land. It is the first of its kind in the nation and the only one in Illinois. It is recognized as a multidisciplinary model of excellence for the short-term clinical care of children who are medically fragile and who may also be technology-dependent.

Children in the Respite Care program can be here for up to two weeks a year, and the 120-day Transitional Program serves as a bridge between hospital and home.

The child-friendly decor and beautifully landscaped grounds make Almost Home Kids a wonderful "home-away-from-home." The Center is open seven days a week, 24-hours a day, so families may spend the most time possible with their child.
