News: A Great CATCH! Community Access to Child Health (Catch) Grant to Benefit Loudoun Adolescents, Offer Free Sports Physicals

(April 17, 2012) - We live in one of the wealthiest counties in the United States according to constant news reports but for some there is an economic catch, driven home by the point that about 16 percent of Loudoun County students are approved for free or reduced meal prices.

Fortunately a new CATCH has arrived -- the Community Access to Child Health (CATCH) implementation fund grant awarded by the American Academy of Pediatrics to Dr. C. Damon Moore of Pediatric Healthcare in Loudoun.

The grant will fund an education event on April 21 at Inova Loudoun Hospital aimed at Loudoun County athletic directors, student athletes and parents, and then the grant will fund 200 free sports physical to be offered in May.
