About Crescent Cove

Crescent Cove is a nonprofit organization providing care and support to children and young adults with shortened life expectancies, and to their families who love them. We opened Minnesota's first and only residential respite and hospice home dedicated specifically to kids in 2018. Thousands of children in the state of Minnesota live with a life-threatening condition, all of whom their families which could benefit from short respite breaks. In addition, approximately 700 children pass away each year in Minnesota, and they too could benefit from a space for sacred, end-of-life care. The Crescent Cove Respite & Hospice Home for Kids bridges the gap between a home and hospital for many families. It gives the primary guardian a break from the demands of continuous daily cares, a chance to relax (and in many cases, to sleep through the night) and an opportunity to reconnect on a pure emotional level with their child or other children. This home is NECESSARY for families facing emotional, financial, and spiritual struggles each day. While there are nearly 5000 dedicated hospice homes for adults in the United States, Crescent Cove is only the third such home designed expressly for the unique needs of young people (infancy to age 21). While some may understandably consider hospice and palliative care for children to be a sad or depressing subject, Crescent Cove is - above all - a place of hope. We are helping families redefine what hope can mean. We believe that quality of life is not found in its length, but in the joys, small and large, each day can bring. The things we hope for may change, but it remains an essential part of the Crescent Cove experience.
