🎒📚 Back-to-School Success Across Texas!

Legacy Community Health had an incredible Back-to-School season, spreading smiles, supplies and stories across Houston, Beaumont and beyond!

At BakerRipley Community Schools, we gave away 150 backpacks and over 1,000 books, including 800 generously donated by Molly, Daileya and their amazing family. 💖 Thank you for helping us spark a love of reading!

Across six events in one weekend, our team, pharmacy staff and volunteers showed up strong, from PlazaAmericas, Alief ISD, SW Public Schools, Sisters of Charity, and the City of Houston Mayor’s Back-to-School Bash, to our Beaumont Festival, where we handed out 1,000+ backpacks and celebrated with families. 🎉

📦 In total, we stuffed and distributed 2,600 drawstring bags filled with school supplies, 1,600 shipped to sites from Alief to Baytown, and 1,000 more shared at community events. That’s impact in action!

Back-to-school season is here, and it's normal for kids to feel a little nervous about what's ahead. At Legacy, we're here for your child's whole health--body and mind.

In this special Summer of Stories video, Dr. Antoinette Wilson, a therapy director in Legacy's School-Based Behavioral Health, reads a book all about worry. It's a great way to start a conversation with your child about feelings, fears, and what to expect as the new school year begins.

Reading together can help kids feel heard, safe, and ready to take on new challenges.

What an impactful day at the 2025 Houston Community College Staff Conference with over 300 attendees! Legacy had the privilege of offering free health screenings, distributing hurricane kits, and sharing valuable resources to help HCC staff stay healthy and prepared. 🩺

A special shoutout to the HCC Coleman Health Sciences PTA students who gave our staff much needed massages throughout the event, thank you for the care and relaxation!

One major takeaway from the event: We helped a patient with high blood sugar, showing just how crucial regular screenings and proper care are. Preventative health saves lives! 🙌

We’re proud to partner with HCC in supporting wellness and education for all.
