Through the Healthy Schools Program, Primeros Pasos brings health care and health education to rural schools and day care centers in the communities we serve.
Each day, a class from one of the schools we serve arrives at the clinic. The children each receive a medical and dental check-up and participate in an exciting and interactive health education program. The day not only provides students with immediate clinical care, but also tools for bettering their hygiene habits and preventative measures to improve their quality of life.
