Niagara Hospice Resource Center

In February 2011 Niagara Hospice opened a resource center in the city of Lockport. The Resource Center is a community based center that provides information in a friendly and home-like atmosphere to people interested in learning about hospice related services. Resources include education materials that cover hospice services as well as trained staff and volunteers who are available to personally answer questions with the goal of educating more Niagara County residents about the total hospice experience and all that Niagara Hospice has to offer. 

Centrally located at the Ulrich City Centre at 175 Walnut Street in Lockport, the Resource Center is in a highly visible location and on a bus route.
