NICU Financial Assistance Fund

The Yale New Haven Children’s Hospital NICU Family Advisory Council works to alleviate the stress of parking expenses for NICU families who are struggling financially and those who are facing extended stays through the assistance of this fund. Each year hundreds of premature infants and babies with long-term health problems are cared for in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Families are suddenly faced with the stress of having a baby in the hospital and that stress is often compounded by lost wages and unforeseen expenses such as medical bills, child care for siblings, meals, transportation and parking. This fund provides assistance and helps alleviate the stress of such expenses for NICU families who may be struggling financially and those who are facing extended stays.
