Families with critically ill children in Florida often encounter difficulties securing affordable lodging near medical centers where their children receive treatment. The costs associated with temporary housing can create significant financial stress for these families.

Florida offers a program called Home Away from Home, which aims to support families during these challenging times by providing resources and assistance related to lodging needs near healthcare facilities.
