Learn more about the Resource Directory

Welcome to the St. Mary’s Healthcare System Resource Directory

This resource directory is for families/caregivers of children who have medically complex needs or long-lasting conditions that require extra health care and support services.

The information in this directory is provided to help you find resources to assist you with finding help for your child and family. The range of care/disability/health issues varies amongst children so the information may or may not pertain to your child.

What you'll find

After a family learns that their child is ill parents/caregivers typically begin to think about how they can best care for their child. The resources in this directory include agencies, service providers, advocacy organizations, and other resources to assist with providing a quality life for children with medically complex needs.

To find a resource enter your area of interest in the search box on the side bar and the location in the box located on the top of the screen. The directory is intended to assist you with being the best advocate for your child. Although we attempt to keep the directory current resources change constantly.

  1. The M.O.R.G.A.N. Project themorganproject.org

    Our Mission is to provide support to parents/caregivers and act as a reference source for information, financial resources, used equipment exchanges, research and clinical studies, support groups, web links, etc. This is done in the form of an interactive website, and newsletters;

    To make small individual awards (products & services only) to parents/caregivers of children with physical disabilities, for things like adaptive bath and shower chairs not otherwise covered by Medicaid or Insurance, or other non-covered items that would make caring for these children easier on the parent/caregiver and help to improve their quality of life at the same time.

Assistance is awarded to spinal cord injury survivors with paraplegia and quadriplegia (Please Note: paralysis must be due to a spinal cord injury that was caused by an accident, separate from complications caused at birth.

  4. Us Variety usvariety.org

    Variety aids children with physical challenges whose families cannot afford, nor obtain through insurance, necessary mobility equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, strollers, specially-designed adaptive bikes, and other mobility devices.

    Variety helps children who are disadvantaged and want to experience the fullness of life. Variety takes them out into their communities for special excursions that are usually taken for granted – to the zoo, museum, skating rink, library, concerts, amusement parks, the circus, and fun-filled events like fishing, film festivals, special movie screenings and annual holiday party!

    Variety supports other local initiatives to benefit the children of your community, such as children’s hospitals, camps, boys & girls clubs, after school programs, literacy programs, educational scholarships and arts programs
