Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Parent Support (NICUPS)

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Parent Support (NICUPS) is a community support organization, supported and facilitated entirely by local parents, community members and NICU nursing staff. NICUPS is devoted to offering support to parents and caregivers of premature and special needs newborns.
