In September 2022, GNHCC facilitated a Back to School Child Health Webinar. We were joined by two local pediatricians, Dr. Joseph Schwab and Dr. Manny Jimenez, for a virtual Q&A session. The pediatricians talked about the importance of vaccinations, routines, mental wellbeing and development. They helped to clarify any concerns about the COVID vaccine and strategies to employ to support children's behavioral health. Please watch the webinar recording below for all the details and information you need to know to support children's health as they return to school.
