Making Moments Count for Kids And Families

Crescent Cove offers care and support to children and young adults with shortened life-expectancies, and to their families who love them. While there are more than 4,700 hospice homes for adults across the United States, only a handful exist for children. Crescent Cove is proud to be Minnesota’s first and only residential respite and hospice home designed specifically for kids, and just the third of its kind in the country. More than a place of care, it is a vibrant, joyful home-away-from-home where families feel Embraced, Assured, and Celebrated.
