Cancer Care Access: Dr. Paul Coty opened a new medical oncology practice at Tumon Sands Plaza on June 8, aiming to bring modern cancer treatment closer to Guam residents. Local Health Infrastructure: F.B. Leon Guerrero Middle School in Yigo passed phase one of a required health inspection, clearing the way for the campus to reopen after a closure tied to structural issues.

Maternal Health Coverage: Guam Medicaid will reimburse doula services starting July 1, covering support from confirmed pregnancy through six months postpartum for eligible members. Public Health Leadership: Guam tuberculosis program manager Chima Mbakwem was selected to lead the National Tuberculosis Coalition of America, giving the Pacific region a stronger voice in national TB policy. Care for People with Disabilities: The Guam System for Assistive Technology held its 32nd Assistive Technology Fair, showcasing tools that help residents live more independently. Transit to Health & School: Ground broke on the Dededo Park & Ride Northern Terminal, funded by a $9.5M federal grant, with the route connecting riders to the Northern Regional Community Health Center and major education sites. Community Health Funding Oversight: A performance audit found oversight and monitoring gaps in Guam’s Village Community Care childcare program, limiting accountability across municipalities.
