CHP exists to improve the health of the Pikes Peak region.
About us
CHP's mission is to transform the way people work together to solve complex community health issues. Because systems are fundamentally broken, we disrupt the ways we work together to solve complex issues such as homelessness, behavioral health, suicide prevention, and LGBTQ+ health. We don’t attempt to solve health equity issues through direct services. Instead, we leverage collective action to create community change. We set up collaborative governance structures that bring together diverse groups of people, representing organizations and communities, to change the conditions that hold a problem in place. This collective community power builds movements, restructures systems, and leads to better health outcomes for our region. By creating an environment of belonging, cultivating shared purpose, and facilitating a process of inclusive, dynamic problem-solving, CHP acts as the conduit for the exchange of ideas, experience, energy, and resources that are necessary for true transformation.

Today, we celebrate the vibrant and powerful art form that is drag, From its roots in ancient theater to the dazzling stages of today, drag has a rich history of promoting intersectionality, inclusivity, and artistic freedom. Drag isn't just about fabulous costumes and stunning performances; it challenges norms and creates a community where everyone is welcome. As our staff member, Carter Cadena, an internationally known drag entertainer who performs as Hysteria Brooks (pictured), beautifully puts it: "For me, drag transcends mere performance - it is a political rebellion, a social protest, and above all, a profound means of self-expression." Join us in celebrating the creativity, courage, and resilience of drag performers everywhere. Want to know more about the history and significance of drag?

🌈Today is International Nonbinary People's Day, which recognizes and honors non-binary people, who do not identify within the traditional gender binary of male and female. This annual observance also raises awareness of the challenges nonbinary people face, such as discrimination, lack of legal recognition, and mental health struggles. Here are a few simple ways to support the nonbinary people in your life: 1. Use Correct Pronouns: Respecting and using a person’s pronouns creates a sense of belonging, which impacts well-being and reduces suicide risk. 2. Listen and Learn: Take time to listen to and validate their experiences and educate yourself about non-binary identities. 3. Challenge Gender Norms: Question stereotypes and advocate for inclusive language and policies. 4. Speak Up: Stand against misgendering and offer support, even when they’re not around. 5. Create Safe Spaces: Make environments welcoming with gender-neutral bathrooms and inclusive resources. Let's celebrate the non-binary community today and every day by fostering respect, understanding, and acceptance. #InternationalNonbinaryPeoplesDay #Nonbinary #LGBTQIA #SupportNonbinaryPeople

Today is National PTSD Awareness Day. LPTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, was once thought to affect only returning combat veterans. However, PTSD can impact anyone who has experienced a traumatic event, including victims of violent crime or those who have lived through catastrophic events. In fact, 20% of adults in the United States who have experienced a traumatic event suffer from PTSD. If you or someone you know are struggling with symptoms of PTSD, call 988. This hotline offers free and confidential support for people in distress and can provide resources for you or your loved ones. #PTSDAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #BreakTheStigma #SupportAndHeal #Call988
