Our Healthy Child Clinics are for all children, age six months to five years, and offer free vision, hearing, height, weight, speech, social/emotional, developmental, and dental screenings. The goal of these clinics is to pinpoint any health or developmental issues before children enter school, and more importantly before any problems have a chance to develop further. These clinics provide an assessment of your child while they are healthy. The results of all developmental, emotional, and dental screenings will be sent to your child’s primary care physician.

We encourage all parents to participate in these free healthy child clinics.
