Primary Health Care for Urban School Children
The Primary Health Care for Urban School Children program focuses on developing school-based/linked health programs in Chicago schools, grades Pre-K through 12. The goal of the program is to help families understand and take greater responsibility for the primary health care needs of their school-age children by acquainting families with the health care services available in their communities. Program staff also work with the schools to strengthen their health education programs for students, staff, and parents.
Services are provided by teams consisting of nurses, school-community advocates, social workers, and physician consultants. The teams are also assisted by UIC dentistry and pharmacy faculty and students.
