WEBINAR: SBHC Capital Program – HRSA Funding Opportunity*
Wednesday, February 28, 3:00pm ET
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has announced the availability of up to $10 million in funding for school health center capital investments. The agency is expected to make up to 100 awards to currently operational school-based health centers (SBHCs) for the purpose of increasing “access to mental health, substance abuse, and childhood obesity-related services.”
In response to this opportunity, the School-Based Health Alliance is hosting a webinar featuring school-based health care experts who will share examples of how two programs are implementing telehealth services and what renovations and equipment might be necessary and take some questions. After the webinar, participants will be able to:
- Assess their eligibility for and interest in applying for one or more of the three types of funding opportunities included in HRSA’s School-Based Health Center Capital (SBHCC) Program Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO);
- Describe how SBHCs in two states utilize telehealth to provide mental health, substance abuse, and nutrition counseling services; and
- List examples of the type and cost of equipment and space renovation needed to provide mental health, substance abuse, and nutrition counseling services via telehealth.
