We believe health care should mean a lot more than just medical care. That’s why we help give Colorado communities greater access to crisis and behavioral health care, nutrition, health education, as well as traditional medical care, by partnering with and creating local programs that are dedicated to making a better Colorado for everyone—no matter who you are or where you are.
“We found out a bunch of kids don’t eat on the weekend and just figured ‘let’s find a way to feed them.’” – Bob Bell, Founder, Food for Thought Denver
UCHealth is proud to partner with Food for Thought Denver—a nonprofit that gives food to children to take home over the weekend so they won’t go hungry.
Other food insecurity programs we support:

Our mental health professionals de-escalate crisis situations involving mental health concerns, greatly improving outcomes tor those in need of support and reducing strains to the criminal justice system.
