Family Care Center

As families prepare for a new school year, the UH Health Family Care Center is helping make the transition easier by bringing together school supplies, health services and community resources at its annual Back to School Block Party.

When Foley Jr. transitioned from pre-kindergarten to kindergarten, Briscoe began receiving calls from his school about behaviors that raised concerns. Wanting to better understand his needs and identify ways to support him, she turned to the UH Health Family Care Center.

As the new school year approached, the UH Health Family Care Center, partnering with Boynton Chapel Methodist Church, opened its doors and heart to the community with its Back-to-School Block Party. The event offered families more than just school supplies; it provided a day of fun, connection, and vital health resources in one of Houston’s underserved neighborhoods.
