    What to bring to the meeting

    • Your child’s diagnosis, the hospital’s name, and what you need help with.

    What happens next

    • The hospital social worker contacts Brent’s Place Family Support so the family can be considered for lodging.
    • The social worker routes the private application using the instructions Brent’s Place supplies.
    • Family Support contacts the family to discuss availability, schedule check-in, and answer questions.

After your social worker sends it

Expect Family Support to contact the family after receipt about availability and check-in; families with questions may call 720-343-2800.
