优先级

The Colorado Health Foundation has chosen 10 priority areas where we believe our efforts can drive health equity and racial justice, making a real difference in the health of people throughout Colorado. These priority areas are guided by four strategic focus areas，其中我们:

1. Champion Power Shifting
2. Advance Health and Well-being
3. Support 社区解决方案
4. 重新定义系统

We know that these priority areas are connected and if we address them, 在一起, we can make an impact on the unfair differences in health and opportunities that exist in Colorado. Learn why these priorities are so important to health equity and racial justice. We encourage you to reach out to one of our 项目官员 dedicated to each area for questions.
