The Paulding Exempted Village School District, in collaboration with Family Health Care of Northwest Ohio, is assessing the health care needs of the community and the sustainability of a school-based health center (SBHC). Together they will consider seeking grant funds to establish a SBHC in Paulding. With over 130 already in existence in Ohio, SBHCs are designed to provide comprehensive health services directly within school settings. By pursuing this opportunity, we aim to further support students' academic achievements by making health services accessible.
