Indianapolis, IN – May 13, 2026 – Jane Pauley Community Health Center to Provide Services within the Metropolitan School District of Warren Township
The Jane Pauley Community Health Center (JPCHC) is proud to be the Metropolitan School District of Warren Township’s (MSD Warren Township) choice to provide school-based behavioral health services in all school sites. The contract officially begins and will add all 17 district schools to the JPCHC network.
These services will offer students therapy for common challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, and depression, as well as provide medication management and life skills programming. Services will be available at all 17 school sites in the district, representing a range of ages.
The collaboration of JPCHC with MSD Warren Township will also provide more opportunities for students and their families to take advantage of other JPCHC services at nearby clinic locations, such as family and pediatric primary care, dentistry, optometry, adult behavioral health, free insurance navigation, free patient food pantries, and affordable prescription medications.
JPCHC has had much success with its currently established school partnerships in Alexandria, and Behavioral Health leadership is excited for the opportunity to expand this service line further and extend care to even more students.
Director of Pediatric Behavioral Health Services, Dr. Laura Yacko, shares the impact she’s seen, stating, “I’ve seen the profound impact that our school-based services can have on students, and I’m honored that we have the opportunity to expand that care to new groups of students. We are thankful to be chosen by the board as the provider of choice for this community, and I can’t wait to see our continued impact.”
Superintendent of MSD Warren Township, Dr. Tim Hanson, adds, “We know that the success of our students is deeply connected to well-being. Partnering with the Jane Pauley Community Health Center allows us to meet our students and families where they are, providing critical mental health services in a way that is accessible, responsive, and rooted in our community.”
New school-based services will add to the robust, existing behavioral health service line at JPCHC, where integrated and comprehensive care is key. All JPCHC sites offer a range of therapy and medication management services that are integrated along with other service lines, striving to provide accessible whole-person health services under one roof.
