Overview
Mission
Through advocacy, education, and networking, the ct association of school based health centers positions sbhcs as leaders in the broader healthcare system for ct's children and adolescents.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Connecticut association of school based health centers (casbhc's) vision is that all children and adolescents in Connecticut are healthy and achieving at their fullest potential. Casbhc works towards this vision by supporting a large and growing network of school-based health centers. Connecticut's school based health centers (sbhcs) are comprehensive primary health care facilities licensed as outpatient clinics or as hospital satellites. The sbhcs are located within or on school grounds and serve students in grades pre-k-12. Casbhc was formed in 1994, receiving its 501 (c)(3) nonprofit agency in 1996 to support the establishment, funding, and professional skills of the school-based health centers. Casbhc has successfully built strong support for the school-based health centers from Connecticut's legislature, commissioners of state departments, and other policy makers. Casbhc is a state affiliate of the national school-based health center organization (the school-based health alliance). Through casbhc's work, Connecticut is recognized as a national leader in the development and quality of its school-based health centers. Casbhc convenes training events for school-based health center staff and community partners, as well as convening a well-attended annual conference. These events help keep Connecticut's centers at the forefront of best practices for health care for children and adolescents.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 64% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
