District 21 Health Center
About
The purpose of the District 21 Health Center is to bring health care directly to the school environment, thereby addressing barriers to access, including cost and stigma, ensuring that all students have equitable opportunities to receive timely and appropriate health care services.
The District 21 Health Center aims to provide comprehensive primary and preventative physical, mental and educational health services for children and adolescents within our district. These services are meant to improve the social/emotional, cultural and physical health of these groups, as well as the educational environment.
