The Consortium is a nonprofit organization partnering with school districts in Colorado to ensure the successful implementation of the Medicaid School Health Services (SHS) Program. As health champions and advocates for all students, we are committed to increasing access to health services and seek to improve student health throughout Colorado.
We monitor and advocate for health services for children on a national, state and local level. Working closely with our state partners, we address policies and issues that directly affect the SHS Program and health services in schools. Providing expertise and consultation to help school districts navigate the complexities of Medicaid and the SHS Program, our goal is to maximize funding resources enabling school districts to provide additional health services.
Our vision is that all students have the health services they need to be successful in school and life.
