ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: May 15, 2007 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. (~ ' -~ <br />SUBJECT: Planning for Possible School-based Health Center in Orange County School <br />District <br />DEPARTMENT: Orange County Schools PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Dr. Shirley Carraway, 732-8126 <br />PURPOSE: To agree to participate in consideration of a school-based health center in the <br />Orange County School District and to appoint a liaison to the planning group. <br />BACKGROUND: At the joint school boards/commissioners' work session on April 30, the <br />Board heard a report from Orange County Schools Superintendent Dr. Shirley Carraway <br />regarding school-based health center planning. In summary, over the past two years, a small <br />group of individuals have met periodically to assess the need for aschool-based health center <br />for the Orange County Schools District. The group has included representatives from Orange <br />County Schools, the Department of Social Services, the Health Department, and OPC Mental <br />Health. Presentations have been made to the Orange County School Board, the Social <br />Services Board and the Health Board reviewing the data and the concepts that the group has <br />discussed over the past two years. Orange County Schools has secured a small planning grant <br />that will be utilized over the upcoming year to engage in more definitive planning for a possible <br />school-based health center initiative and would like to secure the participation and endorsement <br />of the Commissioners for moving forward with the planning effort. Other public and private <br />community partners will collaborate in planning for the implementation of these concepts. <br />Dr. Carraway also requested that the Commissioners appoint a liaison to the planning group. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: None for the planning phase. Costs for implementation of a school- <br />based health center are not yet defined, but should be clarified during the planning process. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board appoint a liaison to the <br />planning group. <br />
