Background and Discussion:

Precinct 4 seeks to enter into an agreement with Spring Branch Community Health Center (SBCHC) to provide health education programs and no-cost mammogram screenings at designated community centers. Under the agreement, SBCHC will deliver classes on topics such as diabetes management and chronic disease prevention, host at least two community events annually, and provide qualified staff and materials.  The agreement will be effective for twelve months with the option to renew for up to four additional one-year terms.

 

Expected Impact:

This agreement will expand access to preventative health services for Precinct 4 residents, particularly in underserved communities, by offering health education, screenings, and community wellness events in local centers. The partnership supports the County’s goals of improving community health outcomes, increasing early detection of chronic conditions, and promoting healthier lifestyles without financial cost to the County.
