A
To
a
team
together
and
we
started
working
in
that
area
and
I
think
we
outpace
the
staff
a
bit
and
we
went
too
fast
pushed
back
a
little
bit
and
we
listened
and
we
adjusted
our
timetable
and
and
reset
and
and
we
learned
from
that
feedback
and
we
we
just
took
our
time
just
a
little
bit
more.
But
you
know
what
we
accomplished.
Our
five-year
First
Five-Year
Plan
there
in
about
four
years,
and
we
went
on
to
have
a
very
impactful
second
Five-Year
Plan.
A
We
accomplished
that
in
three
years
three
and
a
half
years
and
those
plans
helped
a
lot
of
people
saved
a
lot
of
lives
and
was
very
impactful
for
our
community.
So
I'm
proud
of
the
work
that
that
staff
did
and
we
made
it
through
that
rough
period,
and
you
know
out
to
say
this:
anybody
that's
been
the
health
director
for
25
years.
A
Every
decision
here
makes
you
makes
Not
Gonna
Be
Right
matter
of
fact.
Somebody
asked
me
tell
me
a
time
when
your
leadership,
team
or
staff
came
to
you
and
changed
your
mind.
I
said:
that's
happened,
a
lot
because
I
do
believe
in
being
inclusive
and
being
collaborative
and
listening
and
having
an
open
mind
having
an
open
mind,
but
let's
face
it.
You
said
in
your
job
every
day,
I,
don't
and
so
how
this
decision
would
impact.
A
You
I,
don't
know,
but
you
know-
and
if
you
pass,
that
information
on
to
leadership
and
management
and
to
me
as
executive
director
I'm
going
to
listen
yeah,
can
we
always
accommodate
that
we
try
to
but
keep
in
mind
still
what's
our
mission.
Our
mission
is
to
help
people
to
protect
health
and
prove
health
and
promote
good
health
in
the
community.
So
we
have
to
keep
our
eye
on
that,
but
there
are
things
that
we
could
do
and
certainly
my
mind's
been
changed.
B
So
my
name
is
Fabio
Hernandez
I
used
to
see
her
AF
pronouns
and
on
the
interim
resource
navigation
program
coordinator
and
my
question
is
it
says
we
strive
to
support
and
hold
a
diverse
workplace
and
there
are
many
indicators
that
may
represent:
disability
or
lack
of
racial,
cultural
or
identity.
Diversity,
for
example,
once
hired
on
public
health
does
not
currently
track
ongoing
diversity
goals
to
monitor
if
we
are
physically
doing
the
right
thing
by
our
employees
to
address
Equity
issues.
A
Right,
well,
that's
a
good
question.
Well,
what
I
know
about
Boulder
County
I
know
that
from
looking
at
your
mission
and
your
your
vision
statement
and
from
looking
at
you
know
some
of
your
printed
materials,
the
you
know,
Health
Equity
is
is
prioritized
here,
as
it
should
be.
In
diversity
is
prioritized
the
diversity
of
Staff.
A
Everybody
should
be
included
all
viewpoints,
recognized
and
appreciated,
and
also
providing
culturally
responsive
programs
that
would
be
needed
as
well,
and
then
the
emphasis
of
of
Health
and
Wellness
programs
targeted
to
communities
that
are
most
in
need
as
well
to
reduce
Health
inequities
and
so
I
know
that
Boulder
County,
Public
Health
welcomes
diverse
applicants.
Workers
welcomes
a
diverse
workplace
and
prioritizes
that
and
I
fully
agree
with
that,
because
I
mean
you
you
have
to.
A
You
have
to
have
understanding
of
the
community
that
that
you
serve
in
order
to
be
responsive
to
that
you
have
to
have
a
diverse
staff
that
understands
that
understands
those
different
communities
in
those
different
populations
and
so
I
think
that's
a
core
value
of
this
department
from
everything
that
I
could
see
and
about
inclusion
and
honor
the
life
experiences
of
others
is
one
of
your
core
tenants
and
I
agree
with
that.
You've
got
to
have
it
Josh
we
are
Public
Health
and
get
Public.
Health
doesn't
have
that.
B
A
Workplace
goal,
yeah
I
think
there
again
I
think
a
workplace
goal
would
be
to
try
to
have
a
goal
of
making
sure
that
all
populations
in
the
community
are
represented
and
are
fairly
represented
and
I.
Think
I
think
you
know
probably
a
goal
of
having
training
about
Dei
and
awareness
and
and
not
only
training
but
I,
think
I.
Think
another
measurable
goal
is:
how
do
you
take
these
these
principles
and
policies
and
ideas
and
appreciations,
and
how
do
you
implement
them
at
stratified
level
levels?
A
A
You
know
in
your
Advanced,
your
advancement
opportunities
practices,
I
mean
it
and
it
just
has
to
be.
It
has
to
be
implemented
at
all
levels.
It
has
to
be
actually
where
you
put
these
principles
into
practice
and
I.
Think
you
can
do
that
through
your
policies
through
your
hiring
practices
and
through
your
promotional
activities
and
through
your
activities
for
training
and
professional
development,.
D
Right,
okay
and
the
third
is
that
Mendoza
and
I
identify
as
she
here:
I
am
a
Hispanic
Latina,
mestiza
and
I
am
here:
takovi,
19
vaccine,
bilingual
confidence
and
access
Specialists,
but
also
cultural
broker,
and
so
I
think
the
question
that
you
answered
types
really
good
with
this
next
question:
how
do
you
size
two
parts?
How
do
you
define
community
and
second,
how?
What
do
you
see
as
a
Public
Health
Department's
role
with
priority
populations
in
the
building
of
community.
A
Well,
I
think
there
are
many
communities
in
public
health.
Do
you
have
the
broad
Bolder
community
and
of
course
those
communities
are
made
up
of
population
groups
and
Community
groups
as
diverse
as
they
are
in
Boulder
County,
then
I
think
you
have
to
look
also
not
this
communities,
the
communities
of
colors
and
other
other
communities
and
been
in
the
communities,
but
also
look
at
the
communities.
The
potential
Partners
besides
these
groups
that
you
want
to
work
with,
for
example,
maybe
some
non-traditional
Partners
like
business
like
education
than
you
may
already.
A
Do
you
probably
do
work
with
the
educational
system
already
with
Faith
groups
with
other
other
groups,
community-based
organizations
and
interest
groups
in
those
community-based
organizations?
So
you
really
need
a
broad
array
of
those
and
in
in
Oklahoma
City
we
didn't
have
when
I
went
there,
we
had.
A
That
was
well
beyond
the
Public
Health
Community,
and
it
really
takes
that
to
be
effective
to
have
that
Collective
impact
you
have
to
reach
out
and
have
that
fraud,
representation
in
the
community
in
different
viewpoints
and
so
I
think
you
you've
just
got
to
be
knowledgeable
about
that
and,
of
course,
I
think
the
executive
director
is
going
to
rely
on
staff,
because
you
know
you
probably
work
with
many
of
these
communities
already,
so
you
have
relationships
there.
How
do
we
expand
on
those
relationships
and
develop
new
ones?
A
And
so
it's
definitely
public
Health's
role
to
link
in
with
those
because
of
the
fact
we
cannot
be
effective
going
in
by
ourselves
Public
Health
alone,
the
health
department
alone.
We
can't
get
it
done,
there's
not
enough
resources,
there's
not
enough
people.
We
need
these
traditional
and
non-traditional
Partnerships
and
community-based
organizations
and
groups
to
help
us
deliver
the
public
health
message
and
by
the
way,
using
these
groups
to
reach
populations.
A
A
Well,
this
give
you
an
example
that
anti-vaxxers
well,
if
I
go
talk
to
anti-vaxxers
or
they'll,
say
well,
you're
paid
to
be
here,
but
but
if
you
go
and
you
have
a
coalition
behind
you
or
a
group
behind
you
and
you
have
established
trusting
relationships
with
that,
Community
they're
going
to
listen
to
you
and
they
can
help
you
deliver
that
message
and
I
think
that's
true
of
covet
too
some
groups
that
oppose
what
we
did
in
covid.
You
know
they're
gonna.
A
C
E
F
Name
is
Allison
and
you
see
her
curse.
I
work
in
the
community
health
division,
managing
the
community
Substance
Abuse
Prevention
program.
So
as
the
executive
director,
where
do
you
see
your
role
in
championing
and
progressing
social
justice
movements
such
as
police
brutality,
anti-trans
legislation,
Reproductive
Rights
and
climate
change?.
E
A
We
have
to
those
those
public
health
issues
are
based
on
science
and
on
what's
going
on
in
the
world
around
us
today.
What's
going
on
in
public
health
and
the
needs
of
the
different
communities,
and
so
we're
supportive
of
all
of
those.
And
so
again
we
have.
We
have
to
stay
true
to
science,
does
evolve
and
change
the
world
evolves
and
changes
that
we
have
to
be
supportive
of
those
of
those
issues
and.
G
A
C
E
A
I,
just
think
sometimes
I
think
can't
think
of
a
specific
example,
but
sometimes
when
you
get
so
focused
on
agenda
and
moving
things
forward,
that
you
don't
think
about
the
human
dynamics
as
much
as
you
should
and
and
so
I
mean
as
I
say,
you
can't
be
in
leading
a
health
bar
25
years.
Without
it
doing
something
that
say,
I
could
have
done
that
better.
A
You
know,
and
certainly
I've
had
my
fair
share
of
those
and
and
but
the
thing
is,
is
I,
try
to
learn
from
those
things
but
I
think
sometimes
when,
when
in
the
past,
when
I've
been
too
focused
on
the
goals
and
the
plans
and
not
focus
enough
on
the
human
element
that
I've
had
to
get
that
feedback.
So
you
know
how's
this
going
to
in
fact
impact
people.
H
I
am
Janice
singlet,
you
use
any
of
the
pronouns
I'm,
the
principal
investigator
for
the
I
love
Ice
Project
part
of
Community
Health.
The
question
is:
what
is
your
method
to
bridge
the
requirements
of
government
and
Leadership
with
staff
centered
in
the
community
and
Grassroots
organizations?
Please
provide
an
example
of
a
time
you
have
done
this.
A
Staff
centered
in
the
community
and
Grassroots
okay
well,
I
mean
Grassroots
is
where
it
happens.
In
public
health,
I
mean
that's
community
and
if
you're
going
to
have
positive
change
in
your
community,
it
has
to
be
from
the
bottom
up
and
so
having
the
public
health
department
work
with
Grassroots
and,
as
I
said
before,
respective
staff
here,
and
the
relationships
that
you've
already
developed
with
these
Grassroots
organizations
is
key
a
year
because
you've
you've
got
years
and
years
of
experience
in
developing
these
relationships,
probably
relationships
that
I
would
never
I
wouldn't
have.
A
You
know
you've
probably
been
working
on
these
many
of
you,
maybe
10
or
15
years.
You
know,
and
so
I
just
can't
come
in
and
develop
those
relationships,
the
rich
relationships
that
you've
had
so
it's
key
and
that's
where
it
happens
at
the
Grassroots
and
supporting
people
that
work
of
the
Grassroots
organizations
from
a
public
health
standpoint
and
that's
how
we
get
things
done
in
public
health.
G
A
Good
question:
that's
a
good
question.
Well,
that's
something!
We've
really
focused
on
because
of
many
of
these
communities
and
individuals
within
those
communities
don't
have
a
voice
and
so
but
here's
the
great
equalizer
to
serving
just
disproportionate
underserved
communities.
The
grade
equalizer
is
data
because
data
is
going
to
tell
the
story.
It's
going
to
tell
the
story
and
I
hope,
I
hope
you
have
it
zip
code
by
ZIP
code.
If
you
don't
I'm
sure
it
could
be
done,
but
you
really
need
to
know
specifically
the
neighborhoods
and
the
areas
that
you're
talking
about
it'll.
A
B
A
It
will
tell
you
and
I,
can
tell
you
I'd,
be
willing
to
bet
that
they're
within
Boulder
and
I.
Don't
I've,
never
looked
at
your
data,
so
I
don't
know,
I'd,
be
willing
to
bet
that
they
are
concentrated
in
certain
areas
in
certain
populations
and
and
so
that
road
map
will
tell
you,
here's
the
problem,
here's
the
area-
and
we
know
in
public
health,
here's
the
community
interventions
that
we
can
put
into
place.
A
A
A
People
that
were
in
these
communities,
the
in
barber
shops,
beauty,
shops,
the
wise,
the
libraries,
the
churches
and
we
identified
Irish
people
for
for
heart
disease.
We
link
them
to
Primary
Care
doc.
We
gave
them
free
medicine
if
they
did
a
Statin.
If
they
needed
a
blood
pressure
medicine,
they
got
free
medicine.
We
signed
them
up
for
an
eight
week.
A
Wellness
course
that
we
put
on
we
linked
a
community
health
worker
with
them
a
community
health
worker,
linked
them
to
housing,
to
transportation,
to
all
those
things
about
the
social
determinants
of
Health,
they
were
addressed.
Guess
what-
and
we
collected
data
on
the
front
end
collected
data
on
the
back
in
three
years.
A
What
happened
in
three
years,
stroke
rates
were
reduced
by
14
at
three
years.
In
that
population
you
need
to
focus
on
populations
and
areas.
You
gotta
focus
on
those
areas,
because
that's
where
you're
going
to
get
your
big
increases,
yeah
the
public
health
department
do
all
of
that.
No,
we
partnered
with
others
in
the
community,
so
it
was
a
collective
effort,
but
also
we
reduce
cardiovascular,
the
folks
that
presented
at
the
emergency
department
or
heart
attack
like
symptoms
by
seven
percent
the
three
year
period.
A
So
if
you
can
make
an
impact
in
your
community,
why
did
we
focus
on
cardiovascular
disease?
Why
would
you
it's
the
biggest
killer?
Why
wouldn't
you
it's
the
biggest
killer
in
our
community?
So
put
your
efforts.
Your
first
dollar
goes
on.
What's
going
to
make
your
biggest
difference
and
your
first
dollar
is
going
to
be
in
the
areas
that
has
the
most
need
and
many
times
those
are
going
to
be
in
communities
of
color
it'd
be
different
here,
but
you
know
the
data
will
tell
you
that.
C
Wraps
all
of
our
students
at
the
time
we
have
left
so
I
just
want
to
thank
you,
Gary
for
coming
to
visit
and
being
willing
to
answer
all
these
questions.
We
threw
a
lot
at
you,
so
we
will
transition
if
people
want
to
mingle,
Ask
Gary
a
couple
questions
out
out
in
the
reception
area.
I
know
Rita
will
probably
snatch
you
up
in
about
five
minutes,
but
we'll
give
you
just
a
little
bit
of
time.
Staff
want
to
chat
with
you
well.
