Edmarc is a pediatric hospice organization based in Portsmouth, Virginia, focused on providing end-of-life and related care for children and their families. It delivers in-home hospice services, home health support, and bereavement resources, with a commitment to access regardless of a family's ability to pay. Founded in 1978, Edmarc was the first hospice in the United States designed specifically for children and remains the only pediatric hospice operation in the Hampton Roads region. The agency functions as a United Way partner, serving the Virginia Peninsula and southside Hampton Roads. As a small to mid-sized nonprofit in the hospitals and health care sector, Edmarc targets families navigating pediatric life-limiting illness and the clinicians and communities that support them. Recent developments include ongoing expansion efforts and collaborative bereavement initiatives, such as Peace by Piece, a program developed in partnership with Jewish Family Service to provide an emotional haven for children and teens who have experienced the loss of a loved one.
