    Brooklyn Center’s Health Resource Center offers free and low-cost medical, dental, vision, and mental health services to youth of Brooklyn Center Schools and community ages 0-19.

    To receive services, a completed written and signed consent form is needed by the parent or guardian and is required annually for all children and youth for the following services: medical treatment, including immunizations, dental treatments, eye-exams, and mental health services. Consent forms are available online (click link below), in school health offices and at the Health Resource Center. Please be aware that Minnesota Law does allow young people to receive treatment, without parent/guardian consent, for sexual health and chemical dependency concerns.
