School Based Health Center

School Kids

About our Center

Made possible by Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) competitive grant funding, the School Based Health Center continues to expand in the scope of services provided with diligent providers passionate about helping populations in need of services including primary care, acute medical care, medication assisted treatment (opioid addiction), medical cannabis card applicants, communicable disease testing and treatment, mental health support, individual counseling, and so much more! After our School Based Health Center received official notification of certification from IDPH, the staff has continued to bring affordable, accessible services to students of Douglas County school districts and their household members. 

​

Medicaid and many private insurances will be accepted, and a sliding fee scale based on income will be utilized. The SBHC is fortunate to include an advisory board composed of educators, community members, health department employees, and individuals employed by Douglas County in various roles.

Mental health care is an important addition to the scope of services offered through the center. We have partnered with RISE Behavorial Health and Wellness right here in Tuscola. The mission of RISE Behavioral Health and Wellness is to provide a safe and healing environment where individuals can find support and acceptance with mental health and substance use challenges.
