“The Colorado Health Foundation is committed to elevating the importance of health in public policy debates and advancing policies that will print us closer to achieving our vision. We are also committed to supporting individuals, communities and other organizations in taking action to move forward polices that are good for Colorado’s Health. In that spirit, the Colorado Health Foundation is pleased to announce that we have created and seed funded a new organization, Advocacy for Health Colorado, to serve as a partner in adding even more strength to those fighting for health public policies.
Advocacy for a Healthy Colorado is a nonpartisan 501(c)(4) organization. It is separate and independent from the Foundation, with a mission to increase Coloradans' access to health coverage, quality health care and healthy living through changes in public policy. While the Foundation uses grantmaking, communications, policy advocacy, private sector partnerships and other tools in our efforts to make Colorado a healthier state, Advocacy for a Healthy Colorado's work will be narrowly focused on public policy. They will do this by working in partnership with individuals, communities and organizations to catalyze, organize and take action to pass policies that support Colorado's health. As a 501(c)(4) organization, Advocacy for a Healthy Colorado will have unique capabilities to add strength to Colorado's field of health advocates.
We are excited about Advocacy for a Healthy Colorado's promise to amplify the voices of existing and new advocates for a healthier state. We encourage you to learn more about Advocacy for a Healthy Colorado and to sign up to receive email updates from Advocacy for a Healthy Colorado.” [Source: The Colorado Health Foundation]
