This document advocates for converting public schools in Reading, Pennsylvania to full-service schools to increase access to healthcare for students. It notes that many families in Reading struggle financially and lack health insurance or time to take children to doctors. Full-service schools, which would have on-site doctors or nurses, could provide check-ups, vaccinations, medications and preventative care to students during the school day. Converting the schools would help more children access healthcare and reduce absences due to illness. The goal is to influence school boards, administrators and parents to support adopting this full-service model, as other schools have done successfully.
