Colorado
AHEC System
The
University of Colorado’s (CU) Health Science Center serves
as the System Office for Colorado’s 30–year old AHEC Program.
The System Office works in partnership with the Centers and
serves as the conduit for many academic-community activities,
coordinates student programs and serves as fiscal agent for
state and federal funding.
In turn, Centennial AHEC is one of five community-based non-profit
centers that provide health workforce services throughout
Colorado in collaboration with the AHEC System Office, other
Centers and local partners.
There are some 55 AHEC Programs nationally with over 200 Centers.
Serving virtually every state, the District of Columbia and
selected Pacific Island, AHECs have made major impacts since
their establishment by Congress in 1971.
Nationally, the AHEC mission is to enhance access to quality
health care, particularly primary and preventive care, by
improving the supply and distribution of healthcare professionals
through community/academic educational partnerships.
The Colorado AHEC system and the Colorado Centers are all
members of the National
AHEC Organization.
