PARENT MATCHING: Perhaps you have been recently diagnosed in utero with your baby having a congenital heart defect, or your newborn has been recently diagnosed with having a CHD. Would you like to talk to another parent? Little Hearts can connect you with other parents who have a child with a similar diagnosis or live near you.

PARENTS HELPING PARENTS: Has your child had the surgery to correct a heart defect, and are you looking to offer support to another heart parent? As a member of Little Hearts, you can help other parents who would most benefit from your child's story and your experience.

EMAIL SUPPORT GROUP: For those members that are online, we offer an email support group. A great way to offer or receive support without leaving your home!

RESOURCES: We have put together resources we recommend for heart families. Books pertaining to CHD - recommends websites, hospital helpful hints and more! Read our listing of resources online.

Newsletters and our Resources are available in Adobe Acrobat Reader format.  If you do not have this free program, download it now.

YEARLY PHOTO CALENDAR: Every year in our October newsletter, we invite members to send in a photo of their heartchild for our yearly calendar. The photos of the kids are placed on the month in which they were born and underneath their photo is the year that they were born, their first name and their diagnosis. An excellent way in sharing the hope with other families! They are also available for purchase throughout the year by going to our PRODUCTS page.



 

 

 

MEETINGS: Rather than waiting a month for a scheduled meeting, why not contact a member that lives nearby and talk or meet another parent in a few days! Use our PARENT MATCHING program and get in touch with families in the same town as you.

We have a large network of families who we can put you in touch with. There's no need to wait for a scheduled meeting when you can meet a member through our organization.

Up until last year, we used to provide meetings in various states but have found that the busy schedule of many parents have made it difficult for many to attend. We've found that our networking works best.

Contact us today and we'll put you in touch with a family the next day!

NEWSLETTER: We publish a newsletter four times a year. It is mailed out to members but can also be read online. The links to previous newsletters are listed on the left hand side of this page. We have an excellent write up on the modified Norwood by Dr. Richard Jonas in our July 2003 newsletter!

PROJECTS: For members looking to bring awareness to the number one birth defect, we have created items to help. In addition to our newest product - our awareness license plate holder, we have an awareness t-shirt, buttons, window cling, stickers and more! Please visit our PRODUCTS page for more information!
