About Community Health Partnership

Community Health Partnership (CHP) is a community collaboration of local health providers with the enduring purpose to improve the health of the Pikes Peak region through collaboration.

Since 1992, Community Health Partnership (CHP) has provided a forum for health care organizations and community members to work together to improve health care for our entire community.  Founded by AspenPointe, the El Paso County Medical Society, El Paso County Public Health, Memorial Health System, Peak Vista Community Health Centers, and Penrose-St. Francis Health Services, the membership has grown to 25 organizations and individuals representing a variety of areas in healthcare.

Health care reform drives communities to take ownership of health care delivery and outcomes, and CHP’s model of collaboration is a stellar example of how organizations can work together for common goals, both formally and informally.  Our scope of work is not restricted to one idea or area.  The coalition is open to new ideas and models that will improve our community’s health.

We believe that keeping health care local and building on existing resources ensures the best care and the most efficient use of our health care dollars for the citizens of the Pikes Peak Region.

Now is an exciting time in health care, and community health coalitions like CHP are not common.  CHP provides a model for other communities throughout the country dedicated to keeping health care local. Learn More at Community Health Partnership.
