Extractions: Internet address: lisa_guion@ncsu.edu The North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service 4-H Expanded Food and Nutrition Program (4-H EFNEP), in collaboration with the Out For Lunch program, funded nine counties to implement youth nutrition programs during the summer of 1997. These experiential programs were designed to provide limited resource youth with information on the fundamentals of proper nutrition, and contribute to their personal development and well-being. A total of 1,469 young people in Alamance, Ashe, Craven, Gaston, Hoke, Montgomery, Pasquotank, Warren and Wayne counties were provided with solid nutrition education via fun, hands-on demonstration sessions, cooking classes, food science experiments, experiential learning tours, arts and crafts such as vegetable block printing, as well as hours of nutrition education. Fifty teens were trained as peer nutrition educators and conducted a total of 300 hours of education. Collaboration played a large role in the success of all the county programs. Likewise, members of a collaborative effort view each other as partners and are willing to share risks, resources, responsibilities, and rewards. "Collaboration is exchanging information, altering activities, sharing resources, and enhancing the capacity of organizations, for mutual benefit, and to achieve a common purpose" (Himmelman, 1993, p. 2).

Extractions: "School-based health centers are easily accessible and designed to eliminate or diminish barriers to care for students. The school-based health center provides age- appropriate primary health, mental health, prevention and health education services. Most care is provided on-site. Some services, based on local need and expertise, may be made available by referral with appropriate follow-up." Service Guidelines
Extractions: For many years, public schools have provided important basic health services to students. School- based health centers (SBHCs) represent a relatively new expansion of this concept, offering comprehensive, accessible, primary and preventive physical and mental health services to school-age youth. This evolution is a community based response to the serious health and health-related educational problems faced by many children and their families today. As recently as 1985, fewer than 50 SBHCs existed in the United States. By the fall of 1995, over 600 were in operation. North Carolina currently has 26 SBHCs in eighteen counties. These were developed through local community collaboration, spurred by the vision of parents, educators, and health providers to improve the health and educational status of North Carolina's children and teenagers. The purpose of the Making the Grade in North Carolina project is to increase access to comprehensive health care for school age children and youth of this state through school-based and school linked health centers. Standards have been developed to provide guidance in achieving excellence in care at the centers. These standards will:
