How do SBHCs benefit kids, parents, schools and communities?

School-based health centers are a powerful approach for addressing child and teen health problems. Research studies have shown SBHCs to:
  • Improve access to care
  • Reduce absenteeism from school
  • Reduce the use of expensive emergency room care
  • Improve immunization rates

Families benefit:
  • Parents miss less time from work due to reduced travel time
  • Families are informed about low cost insurance alternatives and the importance of preventive health care services
Schools and communities benefit:
  • School-based health centers support the schools' educational mission.
  • Students appreciate services that are uniquely tailored to meet their needs
  • Students are in school and ready to learn
  • Concerns are addressed promptly
