The Division of Adolescent Medicine and Envision New Mexico 2.0's programs aim at improving overall health and wellbeing for New Mexico’s adolescent youth. Our programs seek to support and educate healthcare providers by sharing innovative methods and strategies to promote a healthy way of living for children, teens, and families that come into their clinics. Below are some of division programs and how we make an impact in local and rural communities.
The University of New Mexico School-Based Health Center program provides health care services at several elementary, middle, and high schools in the Albuquerque, NM area. The centers are open during school hours and are staffed by licensed health care professionals and clinical assistants. Services are available to all students—regardless of their ability to pay—and include primary care (treatment of minor injuries, immunizations, sports physicals, etc.), mental health, referral, and prevention services.
Envision New Mexico (ENM) is a healthcare, quality improvement program through the Division of Adolescent Medicine. Envision New Mexico interdisciplinary staff work with children’s health practitioners to make sustainable changes in health care delivery practices and community service coordination to improve the quality of healthcare for all children in New Mexico.
The Contraception Mentoring Program (CMP) aims to improve reproductive autonomy by increasing access to all contraceptive methods for all people of reproductive age in New Mexico. The CMP is the only hands-on outpatient clinical IUD and implant training program in the state. Each participating clinic site engages in ongoing hands-on training and mentoring activities and uses the clinic support systems constructed by the University of New Mexico and the Contraception Mentoring Program for this initiative.
