Welcome to Project Joy & Hope
Mission: Project Joy and Hope (PJH) exists to provide stability and support for families caring for a seriously ill child. We offer a comprehensive supportive care program for families living at The Tulip Project or residing in communities throughout Texas.
The PJH Palliative Care Campus is a compassionate and supportive community where every family member—parents, siblings, and the child—feels cared for, nurtured, and valued. PJH provides a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the emotional, financial, spiritual, and logistical needs of families facing the challenges of pediatric illness.
From personalized case management and peer support to financial assistance and sibling programs, PJH empowers families to stay strong and focus on their child’s well-being. We foster resilience, instill hope, and provide lasting stability during the difficult journey of caring for a seriously ill child.
Our families find strength in a community of solidarity and support, helping them heal emotionally and cultivate love and compassion for others on similar paths.

Pediatric Palliative Care
Palliative care affects the whole family, with the burden of care falling upon parents and siblings or grandparents. Palliative care (supportive care) is an ‘umbrella’ term for all services that may be required to support children with a life-threatening illness. It is based on an assumption that families have many needs for supportive care (physical, psychological, social, spiritual and practical) from the time a child initially is diagnosed with a life-threatening condition.
The PJH Pediatric Palliative Care Center (PPCC) is a state-of-the-art facility designed to provide community awareness, education, and supportive care programs for children with special healthcare needs and their families in the greater Houston area and beyond. The TULIP PROJECT is a unique pediatric palliative care residential complex comprised of twelve residential homes. Here families discover a “home away from home” while children are undergoing treatment, requiring palliative care, or are awaiting or recovering from a transplant, while receiving supportive care services at the PPCC on campus.
