On the recordDecember 8, 2020
It is my honor today to recognize the Tri- County Health Department as a recipient of the National Association of County and City Health Officials 2020 Model Practice Award. The Tri- County Health Department serves the three counties in my district: Adams, Arapahoe, and Douglas. As we work to address the COVID-19 crisis, this recognition is a reminder of the many ongoing public health initiatives led by our city and county health departments, achievements they make despite challenging and adverse conditions. This award recognizes programs demonstrating excellence in response to a critical local public health need. As part of this year's public health award series, Tri-County Health Department received one Model Practice Award and two Promising Practice Awards. The Model Practice Award was awarded to Tri-County's project on partnering with local businesses on workplace health and well-being. I would like to thank the professionals of Tri-County Health Department for their many contributions to public health. Both before and during the pandemic, their programs and services have been instrumental in protecting the public health and well-being of our community. ____________________
