Accepting the grant is Health Center Director Dr. Stan Ledington (center). Also present to accept the award was Walla Walla Public Schools Superintendent, Wade Smith (left).

Since its beginning over a decade ago, The Health Center has provided school based medical and mental health care services to students in our community, improving their health and opportunities to continue their education and achieving success. The Center’s mission aligns with the core mission of the Rotary Club of Walla Walla-we focus our energy and philanthropy on projects that helps students with recreational facilities, support for activities, scholarships, and life-enhancing services.

The grant from Noon Rotary will assist the Health Center in doubling the number of students with access to school based student medical and mental health services.
