"I’m proud to be part of the foundation that brought 9Health Fair to Colorado communities. It gives me a great sense of purpose, particularly in the rural communities. I’m the lucky one. I get back far more than I give."

As a native to Colorado, Esther served as site coordinator for the Department of Human Services Food Stamp Office 9Health Fair for three years. During those three years, she also participated in the 9Health Fair screenings and learned she had high cholesterol and high triglycerides. Since then, she has worked with her primary care provider to manage these concerns.
Esther now sits on the 9Health Fair Community Involvement Committee (CIC). Esther says her favorite thing about 9Health Fair is that it is for everybody, whether you have insurance or not.

OUR THANKS TO CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL COLORADO FOR SUPPORTING HEALTH EDUCATION FOR YOUTH!
The In the Classroom Program serves as many as 70 schools each school year with training, technical support and interactive health education stations so that student leaders can put on their own health fair, teaching their peers about healthy behaviors and choices. Children’s Hospital Colorado's mission is to be the driving force, in partnership with others, to provide children and their families with an integrated pediatric healthcare delivery system and to be a national leader in pediatric research and education. Working together we will be doing exciting new things including a new Youth Health Advocacy initiative. Stay tuned to these pages to see what unfolds in the months to come. From now on, look for Children's Hospital Colorado's logo with ours.
