On tours of the new school clinic, students asked the school health center staff, 'Is this all for us?' Having a beautiful new space helps convey to students how important they and their health are to the community.
—Bonnie Trinclisti, a leader at one of the 10 Oakland Unified School District school-based clinics that Kaiser Permanente supports through a $7.5 million investment
To support school-based health centers, community clinics, public hospitals, and public health systems, we pair funding with other Kaiser Permanente assets, including clinical practices, physician mentors, and health research. Through investments that totalled $10.5 million in 2011, we're helping our safety net partners adopt technology and other medical advances. These programs build their capacity to provide quality care for more people and prepare for health care reform.
