The Health Equity Advocacy Strategy (HEAS) is a multi-year funding strategy partnering with 18 organizations to build a strong and diverse field of health equity advocates in the state.
The Trust strives to support communities in their ability to organize groups and individuals to promote health equity. As we partner with Coloradans in cities, towns and neighborhoods statewide, our goal is to encourage and strengthen resident- and community-led solutions and funding initiatives.
