Project Purpose:
The Sulphur Springs Valley Health Care Consortium is a group of rural school districts (Elfrida, Double Adobe, Ash Creek, Cochise, McNeal and Pearce) and a federally qualified community and migrant health center (Chiricahua Community Health Centers) dedicated to providing primary dental and medical care to students and their families.
Project Service Area:
The program was developed in response to requests from community groups for dental and medical services for children in the medically underserved areas of southeastern Cochise County, Arizona. The project places CCHCI’s Mobile Dental Unit at each of the schools for screenings and treatment plans. Services are also provided to Head Start and Healthy Families groups in the Douglas area.
