Statement on Grant School Board’s Vote to End CAHC Contract
Family Health Care was not given notice that the Board of Education would be discussing the contract regarding the school-based Child and Adolescent Health Center (CAHC) located within Grant Middle School. We are disappointed with the Board’s decision to end the contract within 90 days and how this will impact students and families in the Grant community. Family Health Care has been providing school-based health care in Grant since 2010. Last school year, we served 658 unduplicated patients, providing primary pediatric medical care and behavioral health care. We will continue to provide services at the Grant Child and Adolescent Health Center until the contract officially expires. We also will provide services at our main clinic location at 11 N. Maple St. Family Health Care remains committed to our mission and vision of providing quality, integrated health care services that are accessible to all.
