IMPROVING HEALTH & WELL-BEING

IN-SCHOOL WELLNESS SERVICE

The Houghton Elementary School Wellness Program is a collaboration of Upper Great Lakes Family Health and Houghton-Portage Township School District supported through funding from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). With parental/guardian consent, our Registered School Wellness Nurse and Licensed Behavioral Health Provider can provider healthcare conveniently within the Houghton Elementary School. This allows for ease of access, fewer disruptions of regular routines and less loss of class time. Our goal is to help improve the health and well-being of all students. Healthy students are better equipped for school success.
