New Health Advocacy Organization Appoints First Executive Director

“Last year, the Colorado Health Foundation created and seed funded a new, health-focused 501(c)(4) organization in an effort to bolster health advocacy in Colorado. Now that organization has a leader. The advocacy group, which will be officially named in the coming weeks, has hired Jake Williams as its executive director. As its new head, Williams will drive its mission to increase Coloradans' access to health coverage, quality health care and healthy living through changes in public policy. While the (c)(4) is separate from and independent of the Foundation, its mission not only aligns with our work but also with the health needs of Colorado communities.” [Source: The Colorado Health Foundation]
