Family & Children's Programs

​​Immunizations
Immunization clinics are held twice a  monthly at the Crawford County Administration Building in the nurse’s office and bimonthly in Gays Mills and Seneca at the Community Buildings to provide an opportunity for children and adults to receive immunizations.  The health department also offers vaccinations requiring payment to adults such as flu and Hepatitis B.

Car Seat Program
Crawford County Public Health offers Car Seat Checks. Road injuries are the leading cause of unintentional deaths to children in the United States.  When installed and used correctly child safety seats decrease the risk of fatal injury by 71% among infants, 54% among toddlers and 45% among children ages 4 - 8.  Schedule an appointment with the Crawford County Child Passenger Safety Technician to learn and ensure your child's car seat is installed correctly.  Car seat checks can be scheduled by calling the Health Department at (608) 326-0229 or emailing slenzendorf@crawfordcountywi.org.

Maternal and Child Health Hotline  (800) 642-7837
The Maternal and Child Health Hotline is available to answer questions regarding a variety of programs for women and young children. In addition to serving as an initial point of contact for WIC offices across the state, we share information with all of our callers about other resources that may be helpful to them, including Badgercare, FoodShare, W2, Childcare Subsidies and Prenatal Care Coordination.

Wisconsin First Step (800) 642-7837 
At Wisconsin First Step our mission is to assist parents in finding resources for their children, aged birth to 21, with special needs. Not only will we help you get connected to the Birth to Three Early Intervention Program, but we can also share information about other programs that may benefit your child and family, including care coordination, therapies, respite care, autism services, behavioral health resources, transition assistance and employment services.​

Vision Screening Program
The goal of the Vision Screening Program is to identify treatable or preventable causes of commonly occurring visual problems in preschool and school–age children. Early detection of eye problems, when treatment can be most effective, ensures that children’s vision is optimal for learning and in some cases can even prevent permanent loss of vision.

The vision screening is done using the Plusoptix screener which employs state of the art technology in vision screening of children.  With a quick “picture” the device instantly checks for a range of vision conditions and will print a detailed screening report to aid the eye care professional in follow up examinations.
