HAPPENING NOW: I'm speaking in support of my #SenBudget Amdt 512 to support School-Based Health Centers. Our students need preventative care, mental health counseling, and other social, emotional & medical supports at school #HealthyYouth #mapoli
Mass. has nearly 60 school-based health centers, in 23 cities & towns; SBHCs improve student health AND academic performance
SBHCs:
1) Decrease Student absenteeism by 50%
2) Decrease Student tardiness by 25%
3) Increase Student GPAs and graduation rates #SenBudget #mapoli
@MA_Senate adopted my #SenBudget Amdt 512 to provide $500k for 5 new School-Based Health Centers in MA #mapoli
