Every Hero Has a Journey
No Family Walks It Alone
At Joy And Ink, we believe every child is a hero — and every family deserves a team of allies.
Our mission is to walk beside families facing life-altering illness, bringing light, creativity, and connection through every chapter of their story.
Blending Arts in Medicine and Geek Therapy, we transform hospital halls into comic-book worlds, create moments of joy that transcend treatment, and build lasting support that continues long after care ends.
Whether it’s a superhero wellness visit, a Mini-Con inside the hospital, a day of laughter at Comic-Con, or resilience and grief support guided by our mental-health professionals, Joy And Ink stands with families from diagnosis to healing — reminding every hero that their story still shines.
Our Programs
FROM IN-CARE TO POST-CARE
MINI-CON
We bring the magic of Comic-Con into the hospital — complete with real-life superheroes, creative workshops, and joyful escape. Mini-Con reminds every child that even in treatment, their story is filled with power, laughter, and hope.
WELLNESS VISITS
Our Hero Ambassadors visit children during treatment to spark conversation, imagination, and comfort. These bedside visits turn ordinary hospital days into heroic ones, proving that joy can fit in any room.
COMIC-CON & CATERING
Families step out of the hospital and into the world of wonder — a day at Comic-Con, tickets covered, lunch included, and memories that last. It’s a chance to laugh, connect, and remember what life feels like beyond treatment.
LEGACY PROGRAM
We honor the lives of children who have passed through creative tributes, art, and memorial events. These moments help families celebrate love, preserve memory, and find healing through storytelling.
RESILIENCE TRAINING
Guided by licensed professionals, families learn practical tools for emotional resilience, communication, and coping. The goal: empower parents and siblings to stay strong through every chapter of their hero’s journey.
TELEHEALTH SUPPORT
Our mental-health team offers virtual counseling and check-ins to ensure no family is ever out of reach. Whether at home or in recovery, families can access professional support and community care with a single click.
GRIEF SUPPORT
We provide compassionate spaces — virtual or in-person — where families can process, share, and heal together. Through guided discussion and creative expression, grief transforms into remembrance and connection.
