Join the Illinois Coalition for School Health Centers and the Illinois Department of Human Services for the School Health Center Statewide Conference: Collaboration, Community,  Commitment.
This year’s theme reflects the school health center community’s leadership and commitment to improving the overall health and well-being of students in Illinois. School health centers are planned partnerships among schools, communities, providers, parents and students who engage in continuous dialogue to meet the health needs of the community’s children and adolescents. This conference will provide these partners with resources and tools to improve student health in Illinois.

The conference aims to:
• Provide resources and facilitate discussions for new and
   developing school health centers
• Highlight the importance of youth in the steering and
   maintenance of the school health center model
• Build a strong coalition between health care providers, health
   advocates and the youth they serve
• Address current trends in child/adolescent health
• Increase collaboration between schools and school health
   centers
• Enrich and strengthen the skills of clinicians, administrators and
   allied staff in the school health center setting
• Provide both formal and informal opportunities for attendees to
   share ideas, information and experiences
• Promote and develop the school health center model through
   advocacy opportunities
