Service integration brings community partners together to share information and resources that can foster healthy, resilient individuals and families. Each service integration team (SIT) is locally based, focused on a specific high school catchment area; currently, there are four teams in Marion County that meet monthly in the North Marion, North Salem, Stayton/Sublimity, and Woodburn areas.

By making connections and aligning resources to match needs, partners can address the social determinants of health that can limit access and opportunity. SITs promote cross-sector collaboration and provide a framework for addressing complex socioeconomic factors, including:

  • urgent needs (such as housing, food, clothing, or utility assistance)
  • health needs (such as prescriptions, co-pays, dental services, or transportation to appointments)
  • early childhood education and parenting/childcare support
  • transportation (such as car repairs, gas cards, or bus passes)
  • personal/professional development opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach (such as classes, training, technology, identification documents, and literacy programs)
  • community resource development and outreach
  • youth education and enrichment opportunities
