Healthy Start Center

 

Purpose

Healthy Start strives to alleviate barriers to learning by connecting student, family and community needs to resources, giving special consideration to low-income students, English language learners and foster youth. We ensure access to LAUSD and community-based integrated services and activities which address specific needs in the areas of academics, medical mental health and basic need supports at no cost. Furthermore, the Healthy Start Navigator is a Certified Enrollment Counselor and can assist any individual to apply for health insurance enrollment.
