Colorado HealthStory Holds Its First Community Forum
0 Comments
Last night, Colorado HealthStory, a project of the Colorado Rural Health Center, the Colorado Coalition for the Medically Underserved and ClinicNET, held its first community forum in Aurora. After collecting stories in Aurora for two months, Colorado HealthStory staff convened community members for a local forum and listening session. The forum was attended by storytellers, city officials, community activists and the media. During the forum, attendees listened to some of the stories collected in Aurora, shared issues related to health and discussed key health data specific to Aurora, as well as identified local efforts to address these issues. The next community forum will be held in Summit County, followed by Rocky Ford, both later in the summer.
In tandem with its first forum, the website for Colorado HealthStory was launched yesterday at www.coloradohealthstory.org. There, visitors can find out more about the project, hear the stories and find out when HealthStory will be in their community. As well as visiting the website, Colorado HealthStory can be found on Facebook and followed on Twitter, and videos can be viewed on Vimeo.
