Collaborative Partnerships

Colorado Safe Futures Fund    The  primary objective is to invest in efforts that reduce and prevent injury and death caused by firearms through a public health approach in the state of Colorado.  Secondary objectives are: 

• Support local interventions (rural, urban, and suburban) and coordination efforts in partnership with local governments and community-based organizations
• Support statewide work that builds momentum so that more federal and national dollars can be drawn down
• Create a central philanthropic table to provide learning and networking opportunities, ensure alignment and increase investments

Collaborative Fund for Youth Mental Well-Being  The Fund aims to establish a $30 million pooled philanthropic fund that will dramatically accelerate youth wellbeing in the state of Colorado over the next five years. The fund will exist alongside and complement a $20 million facility being launched by the Colorado Attorney General’s Office to fund youth wellbeing programs in schools and communities across the state.

Reproductive Collaborative – Choose When  This is a statewide collaborative effort to fund access to contraception – especially long-acting, reversible methods – for people with significant barriers to care. By coming together and leveraging resources from a broad group of funders, we can reach more people and achieve greater impact in a shorter period of time. This is a 3-year effort. The partnership is committed to work toward policy solutions to educate policy makers and the public about barriers to contraceptive care.
