This report presents information and opinions advocating for school-based health centers. Each section starts with a brief introduction and follows with quotations from leaders in the field. The leaders whose thoughts are captured here believe school-based health centers are part of the solution to increasing childhood and adolescent health problems. The sections are: (1) "Kids Need More Health Care," which asserts that the number of children at risk for poor health has increased as children have lost access to care for various reasons; (2) "Families and Communities Are Making It Happen," which describes how, over the last two decades, communities across the country have created school-based health centers in response to troubling statistics; (3) "States Are Making It Happen," which claims that the rapid increase in the number of health centers is due in great part to the interest of state governments (this section includes a map of states directing funding for school-based health centers); (4) "Health Care Providers Are Making It Happen," which explains how multi-disciplinary teams are responsible not only for providing medical and mental health services, but also for coordinating care with students' personal physicians, serving as liaisons, acting as child advocates, conducting health promotion activities, and much more; and (5) "Educators Are Making It Happen," which describes how, working with teachers, school administrators, nurses, and counselors, the school-based health centers are helping students remain healthy (this section includes a graph of the types of schools housing health centers).
