Prom is an RSVP, all-inclusive, no-cost event for approved patients ages 15-19, and one guest. CHLA Prom is thoughtfully crafted to meet the specific needs of teen patients through a fun and momentous milestone experience. Patients and guests alike can take advantage of the preparation services provided. All garments and accessories selected will be kept by the patient and their guest.

Parents drop off patients and their guests. Check in with the Child Life team at the table by the valet parking area and sign up for the getting ready stations. Bring a bag to pack personal items and arrival clothes. We will have a bag check space available.
