Courtney Feezy, the nurse practitioner who staffs Hamtramck’s school‑based health clinic, told the board the clinic recorded more than 1,000 visits last year, including about 400 new patients, and administered roughly 2,000 immunizations.

Feezy said about 80% of students seen at the clinic do not have medical insurance; the clinic provides a range of services free to students who attend Hamtramck Public Schools and to their siblings, including well checks, sick visits, strep testing, influenza and COVID testing, routine labs, same‑day lead screening and vision services coordinated through local optometrists. Clinic staff said they partner with Children’s Hospital of Michigan for laboratory processing and with Wayne State University for in‑clinic mental‑health counseling on certain days.

The clinic reported more than 200 social‑work visits last year and said it enrolled about 90 children in emergency Medicaid or other benefit programs. Staff described community outreach activities — swim and bike safety events, distribution of life jackets and bikes, and direct assistance with diapers, hygiene products and transportation to specialty medical appointments when needed.

Feezy said the clinic is not state funded; funding comes from a private donor, the Children’s Foundation, with additional support from the Hamtramck district to keep operations running. Clinic staff said the part‑time schedule (medical team on site on selected weekdays) still allowed the clinic to reach a high number of children and that they consider the clinic indispensable given local gaps in coverage for immigrant and refugee families.

No board vote was taken on the clinic report. Board members thanked clinic staff for the services and asked about plans to expand clinic hours and to establish a second clinic site; staff said they are exploring grants and other funding options to support a second location.
