Our Work
A lot of Coloradans aren’t going to be happy with the prices they will have to pay for health insurance in 2016.
CHI representatives will be out across the state and country this week, from, Salida to Dallas. And one of our own is getting hitched this weekend in an artsy ceremony in Denver.

It’s all about presentations this week at the Colorado Health Institute. And all about hitting the road.
Colorado may have the nation’s lowest adult obesity rate, but that rate isn’t budging - resting above 20 percent for the past four years.
Almost all of our work is taking place within the walls of the Colorado Health Institute this week. Except, that is, for several staff members traveling around Colorado. And one volunteering in South America.

This week, our team is trekking up to Vail for the Public Health in the Rockies (PHIR) 2015 Annual Conference. Health professionals in Colorado and surrounding states will network, get educated, develop their skills, and have the opportunity to attend seven – yes, seven! – CHI presentations.
