AmeriCorps Supervisor

Hushabye Nursery is an Arizona nonprofit organization with a mission to 'embrace substance exposed babies and their caregivers with compassionate, evidence-based care that changes the course of their entire lives.' The organization was founded by Tara Sundem, a neonatal nurse practitioner who witnessed firsthand the challenges of newborns exposed prenatally to opioids and those families trying to care for them.

Hushabye Nursery's innovative model offers a safe and inclusive space where mothers, family members and babies - from conception through childhood - can receive integrative care and therapeutic support that offers each child the best possible life outcomes. Programs will include prenatal and postpartum support groups, inpatient nursery services, and outpatient therapies.
