Prevention and public health are important to communities across Colorado. Children's Hospital Colorado partners with Street-Smart, Inc., an NPO serving families residing in the Northeast Denver, Park Hill, and Montbello neighborhoods. Through this collaboration, we have been able to promote child passenger safety awareness and provide car seats at low cost to over 1,200 children in these communities, and have raised booster seat usage among young children to a rate above the national average. #KeepPPHF

Prevention and public health are important to my community because it protects vulnerable populations and prevents the spread of disease, like influenza. El Paso County Public Health provides low-cost and free vaccines in the Immunization Clinic. Our medical director talks to local reporters about the importance of getting the flu shot during flu season. #KeepPPHF

@coloradopublichealth: Prevention and Public Health are important to our community because as many as 200 refugees arrive in Colorado each month, most of whom suffer greater incidence of chronic disease and psychological trauma. Our safety net clinics address health disparities by providing preventative health services to medically underserved and vulnerable populations #keepPPHF
