On behalf of the Colorado Community Health Worker, Patient Navigator and Promotores de Salud Alliance:
Children’s Hospital Colorado’s Government Affairs team is preparing for the upcoming state legislative session. They are creating a 2-page handout to share with Colorado lawmakers that highlights the impact of Community Health Workers (CHWs) across the state. This will support continued investment in Medicaid reimbursement for CHWs, set to begin in January 2026.
We’re looking for short case studies and data from CHW programs in Colorado that show:
- Improved health outcomes
- Reduced health disparities
- Cost savings to the healthcare system
- Study citations or links to reports, sources, resources
Your stories and data will help us demonstrate the value of CHWs and the importance of this funding.
📅 Please send your summaries or information by August 15 to: andrea.stojsavljevic@childrenscolorado.org
Thank you for your support in lifting up the work of CHWs across Colorado!
