View Details

Child health, development and well-being affect educational achievement, behavior and future life success. The Children’s Trust, in collaboration with the Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) and the Florida Department of Health in Miami-Dade County (DOH - Miami-Dade), will continue to fund a comprehensive school-based health initiative that increases access to health and wellness services for children and families. The approach involves nursing and mental health professional services and community referrals that promote a healthy school environment intended to identify, prevent and/or remedy student health problems. In addition, telehealth services will be integrated to provide remote access to medical consultations and mental health support, ensuring that students and families receive timely care regardless of location. This is a competitive solicitation open to current school health providers and other community health providers qualified to perform school-based health services.
