The Valerie Fund has pediatric sickle cell programs at each of our centers. Our program at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center is the largest in the state of New Jersey with nearly 500 infants, children and young adults, with another large program at our Voorhees, NJ Center, part of the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia system.
You can help us expand services for our Sickle Cell Program to ensure that patients and their families receive sufficient one-on-one care and education with your donation. We hope to raise funds that will allow us to provide dedicated nursing and social work services at our largest program in Newark—this is particularly important for our newly diagnosed families and also for adolescents and young adults who are heading toward independence and will need to manage their own health and health care.
