In early July 2026, Brazil's Ministry of Health transferred R$10 million to Santa Casa de Araraquara to sustain operations and expand high‑complexity services, while the municipal government secured roughly R$9.5 million from the National Fund for Education Development (FNDE) to refurbish two Community Education and Recreation centres.

On 22 July 2026 the municipality finalized FNDE approval for the R$9.5 million, specifying allocations of about R$5.9 million for CER Caic Prefeito Rubens Cruz I and R$3.6 million for CER Prefeito Rubens Cruz II. The city will sign the commitment term and launch public bidding, also reviving other stalled school‑infrastructure projects.

A week later, on 29 July 2026, Araraquara City Hall announced structural repairs to the Dr. José Roberto Poletti Diagnostic and Backup Unit in Vila Melhado, including painting, door‑handle replacement and bathroom upgrades, with a planned expansion of backup beds pending fiscal‑adjustment clearance. These actions illustrate continued municipal and federal investment in health and education infrastructure across the Araraquara region.
