Looks like @sbh4all hit our limit! Follow @AnnaBurnsDC for the next three questions!!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️ #SBHCmonth19 #sbhcmonth19

[Anna Burns @AnnaBurnsDC]

Q9: How can #SBHCs address the social, environmental and economic conditions (also known as determinants) that influence young people’s health -- like poverty, homelessness, trauma, and food insecurity? #SBHCmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

A11: School-Based Health Care members have access to a great member benefit: the Blueprint. Downloadable soup to nuts editable resources for SBHC planning, implementation, and improvement. #sbhcmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

A10: Young people experiment with nicotine, alcohol, and other substances. It's a fine line between when experimentation becomes problem substance use. SBHCs using SBIRT screen for and intervene youth before addiction occurs. #sbhcmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

A9: The CDC Community Guide credits SBHCs as an evidence-based intervention that changes the communities and the social determinants of health that exist within them. #sbhcmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

A8: SBHCs partner with schools to address physical and behavioral health issues that impact academic achievement. SBHCs referrals are a great alternative to discipline and suspension. #SBHCmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

A7: A number of SBHCs offer healthy cooking classes to their students and families, celebrating cultural differences in a healthy way over breaking healthy bread. #SBHCmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

#SBHC At a recent visit to a high school I spoke with a beautiful young girl who covered her mouth because she had decayed teeth. Luckily her high school in Bradenton, FL will soon offer oral health to students.

Q4: Kids deserve healthy smiles! Why is #oralhealth important & what role can school-based health centers play? #NCDHM #SBHCmonth19 🦷👄🦷

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

STD screening, education, prevention, and treatment provided by the SBHC keeps young people healthy and in school.

[School-Based Health Alliance @sbh4all]

Q6: School-based health centers are safe settings for teens to discuss #reproductivehealth. Why is #sexualhealth care access important for teens? #SBHCmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

#SBHCs provide immediate access to care at the school. Parents don't have to leave work to take them to the doctor. Most are treated and go back to class; they miss less class time and get better grades. Wish this was available in the schools my children attended. #sbhcmonth19

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

Students with access to SBHCs receive screening and early intervention to prevent school violence.

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

@sbh4all @AFTunion @MentalHealthAm @YoungInvincible @NNPHI_ORG @ASCAtweets @ASHAnews @CDC_DASH @NationalCouncil @chfund @KidsPartnership Student's can't learn when they're hungry or worried where they'll sleep that night or what will happen when they get home. SDOH can improve community health #sbhcmonth18

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

@sbh4all @AFTunion @afterschool4all @pewhealth @CommSchools @HealthySchoolsN @schoolnurses @sbh4ca @HRLNYC @TeenHealthGov @healthyteen #sbhc providers are in a unique position: they can identify at-risk teens BEFORE they develop and addiction. Early intervention! #sbhcmonth18

[School-Based Health Alliance @sbh4all]

Q4: Our country is in the midst of a DEVASTATING opioid crisis and many teens are addicted. However, even more young people have a loved one who abuses these drugs. How does the #opioid crisis affect teens and young children? How can mental health in schools help? #SBHCmonth18

[Laura Brey @LauraBrey8512]

@MASBHC @sbh4all alot of children have been exposed to trauma as a result of the parent's drug addiction and suffer from anxiety. The #opiod epidemic effects more than adults/ #sbhcmonth18
