Assistance with
enrollment in health insurance
There are no out-of-pocket expenses to
families for on-site health services provided to registered children.
Whitney Young will make referrals for
additional health and mental health services that cannot be provided at
the school-based health center. Services are provided under the
direction of a medical doctor, family nurse practitioners and a
registered nurse/program manager.
To enroll your child, download the
registration forms
and return the completed forms to your child's participating school.
