Are SBHCs only for inner city schools?
By design, SBHCs are aimed at, but not limited to, students who do not have access to a medical home or whose families have little or no health insurance. However, as more and more parents work outside the home, even children who can afford health care often do not receive care in a timely manner. Consequently, children from all socioeconomic groups, in all types of communities, benefit from the presence of a SBHC in their school.
