The School Health News is a collaborative effort of the NM Alliance for School-Based Health Care, Office of School and Adolescent Health (DOH), and School and Family Support Bureau (PED). The format of the newsletter is aligned with the coordinated school health model, to help school health professionals readily see areas of applicability to the health services and programs they provide.
Newsletters and news updates are electronically sent to the membership of the New Mexico Alliance for School-Based Health Care. You can join the organization by going here.
Questions and comments about the newsletter may be sent to beth@nmasbhc.org.
