Central Peaks Region

Grant Highlight

Youth Health Fairs and Health Services Funds throughout the region

The Central Peaks Regional Council identified children's health as an important issue in the region and first started with the idea to fund fairs to screen youngsters who may have not had consistent medical care. Then came the realization that if problems were identified, parents may not have the resources to follow up with care. So, the next step in the process created Health Services Funds to provide financial assistance to ensure that children identified for further care could get it. The Council worked with several organizations throughout the region on the fairs and the Health Services Funds, including Heart of the Rockies Medical Center Foundation (Chaffee County), St. Thomas More Hospital (Fremont County), Rocky Mountain Rural Health (Park County)  and Custer County Public Health.
