What is Good Beginnings?

Good Beginnings was founded in Los Angeles, California in 1979 by a group of concerned parents who had gone through the NICU and saw a need for a support group to help babies and their families in their time of crisis. Today, over 25 years later, the organization is still comprised of volunteers, most of whom are former NICU parents, who relate to the struggles NICU families face. They care deeply and can appreciate first hand the importance of the work that an organization like Good Beginnings does in providing critical support during a NICU family's time of need.

In an era of spiraling medical costs and diminishing financial resources, members and supporters of Good Beginnings make a real difference in assuring that critical outreach programs and services are available to CSMC's NICU families and that its neonatal intensive care unit continues to offer the best and most comprehensive medical care available.
