Our partnership with MCHC is a wonderful example of what is possible when two organizations come together with a shared commitment to helping families. From telehealth services and behavioral health support to on site COVID 19 vaccinations during the pandemic and affordable sports physicals, MCHC has consistently stepped up to support our community.
This summer, more than 100 of our students received sports physicals through this partnership, helping remove financial and logistical barriers for families and ensuring our student athletes were ready for their seasons.
Thank you, Dr. Pereira, Dr. Williams, Amy Taylor, and the entire Mariposa Community Health Center team, for your compassion, flexibility, and continued commitment to our students and families. We are grateful for all that you do for SCV35!
