At Tri-County Health Network, we believe health is influenced by factors beyond clinical care. Our commitment to social equity involves addressing the impact of race, gender, sexual orientation, and other identities on health. Through our Multicultural Advocacy team, we strive for diversity, equity, and inclusion by collaborating with organizations and community leaders to ensure accessible, holistic solutions for individual well-being.
Programs
Immigrant Legal Services
It is challenging for our immigrant community to find linguistically accessible legal assistance in a rural setting on their pathway to citizenship. TCHNetwork provides limited affordable legal immigration services through our Department of Justice accredited ILS representatives. Our Spanish-speaking bilingual/bicultural team members are available to assist San Miguel County community members with initial Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) applications, DACA renewals, Green Card renewals, and Naturalization applications.
Community Assistance
TCHNetwork believes that language barriers or immigration status should not prevent our Spanish-speaking community members from accessing the available resources. Our bilingual and bicultural staff can assist with processes such as getting a driver’s license, establishing a P.O. Box, enrolling in health insurance, and finding childcare.
Policy and Advocacy
TCHNetwork has created many committees and groups to create sustainable change in San Miguel County and to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Alliance for Belonging (AFB) is comprised of local elected officials and representatives from non-profits, schools, and governmental agencies. AFB provides a system-level perspective on the health inequities faced by the Delta community and works to address policies and procedures to improve those systems.
Drivers License Program
TCHNetwork believes that language barriers or immigration status should not prevent our Spanish-speaking community members from accessing the resources that are available to them. Over the past six months, the MCA team has worked to get 70 participants their ITIN, meetings with consulates, driver’s ed classes and tests in Spanish, mobile DMV, and more to get their Colorado driver licenses.
