The Federal government, Department of Health and Human Services, has announced the
availability of capital grants for school-based health centers. Two hundred grants of up
to $500,000 each will be available .
As you know, we have started a school-based health center in Sisters, but it is currently
operating out of a modular unit on donated land near Sisters High School. Kate Moore,
MCH program manager in Health Services, will be at your October 27th work session to
seek approval of applying for a grant to build a new facility on the donated land in
Sisters.
