The 2025 Colorado Health Symposium is a dynamic space for nonprofit leaders, grassroots organizers, community advocates and policy changemakers to come together, share bold ideas and take action toward a more just and sustainable future. As we navigate uncertainty, this year’s theme, Fortifying the Movement in Volatile Times, reflects the resilience of those leading change and the strategies needed to sustain and strengthen collective efforts in achieving health equity and racial justice. Join us in Keystone, Colorado from July 30-August 1, 2025.

The Foundation offers a limited number of fellowships to people, age 21 and over, living in Colorado and who are actively working to advance health equity by breaking down the many systemic inequities that stand in the way. This fellowship is a competitive opportunity and we ask accepted fellows for their commitment to actively participate in the event by attending most of the conference sessions while bringing their critical voices to the conversations that unfold. We are looking for applicants who are first-time Symposium attendees and those who are working* with community-based and/or organizations led by or centered on people of color and rural-based organizations. Strong alignment with the Foundation’s cornerstones is essential. People working outside of the traditional healthcare sector – such as housing, adult recovery, capacity building, working with young people or advocacy organizations – are encouraged to apply.

*Volunteer and/or lived experience may be substituted for professional experience.

The Foundation strongly believes in language justice and strives to help our guests participate in the language of their heart. Interpretation and translation services are available to assist you throughout the application process. Please email us at cohealthsymposium@coloradohealth.org with your name and preferred language, and a member of our team will contact you within one business day.
