Organization Description
Mission statement | Kaiser Permanente exists to provide high-quality, affordable health care services and to improve the health of our members and the communities we serve. |
Service(s) description | School-based health centers offer a comprehensive scope of services including asthma care, immunizations, family planning, and mental health counseling (learn more from the Washington State School-Based Health Alliance FAQ). In addition to addressing health care concerns, they also promote good health for a lifetime through good nutrition education, supportive relationships, and reinforcement of positive self-images. |
Program impact | Access to school-based health care services reduces time out of school for students, time out of work for families, and enables integration of academic goals into the medical and mental health treatment of students. |
