Grateful Families

The Grateful Families of Children's Hospital Oakland are the parents, grandparents, relatives, extended families, and friends of children who have been treated at Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland. As a group, Grateful Families are dedicated to giving back to the hospital, its staff, and most importantly its patients - the children.

Family members often ask how they can thank Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland for the excellent care their kids receive here. Through the hospital's Grateful Families Program, there are many ways to say "thanks," and each makes a big difference for the kids treated at Children's Hospital.
