How We Began
Coalición Latina para un Aurora Saludable was
established in 2026 with a simple but powerful
belief: healthier communities are built when
people have the knowledge, resources, and
opportunities to shape their own well-being.
Our story began with a recognition that Latino
communities continue to face barriers to
accessing culturally relevant health information,
education, and opportunities to participate
in decisions that affect their health.
We founded Coalición Latina to build upon
the strengths of our communities and create
a space where community voices guide
meaningful action.
Based in Aurora, Colorado, our organization
brings together public health research,
evidence-based health promotion, and culturally
responsive education to support healthier
Latino communities.
