What kinds of services are offered?
- Our services focus on prevention and include immunizations, asthma management, reproductive health care, and mental health counseling.
- The staff is trained to understand and treat the special health care needs of teens. Our team includes a nurse practitioner, mental health counselor and office coordinator. They work closely with the school nurse.
- Our center aims to serve young people who are uninsured and underinsured-those who have nowhere else to go to get medical care and counseling. However, many families with insurance prefer them because of the convenience and service.

- Referral to community resources is also available.
The Nathan Hale/Jane Addams Teen Health Center is sponsored and staffed by Kaiser Permanente and in partnership with Public Health Seattle & King County. Seattle’s school-based health centers are funded in part by the voters of Seattle through the Families and Education Levy.
