George Mark Children's House is a nonprofit in the hospitals and health care sector that provides comprehensive pediatric palliative care. Based in San Leandro, California, it operates the country’s first freestanding facility dedicated to this field. The house is designed to resemble a family home, with spaces such as a staffed kitchen, play areas, and private family apartments to support daily life during care. The organization offers three primary services—respite care, transitional care between hospital and home, and end-of-life care—for children with serious conditions and their families. Its mission centers on reducing suffering by addressing the physical, emotional, spiritual and psychosocial needs of the entire family, pursuing the best possible quality of life from admission onward. Care is delivered through close collaboration among families, the child's physicians, and an interdisciplinary team. Volunteers are considered an integral part of the operation and are heavily involved in the organization's work. The staff size is described as mid-sized, reflecting a dedicated team in the health care field, and a recent partnership with Rancho Obi-Wan was announced in May 2025 to support community engagement.
