History of Public Health in Colorado


To understand how Colorado’s governmental public health system is changing, it is important to know our history and how our system has developed over time. This brief history, adapted from the 1969 publication “Health in Colorado: The First One Hundred Years” and revised in 2021, will provide some insight into our current and evolving system of public health, and the components that will be most impacted by the Public Health Act of 2008 and our Statewide Public Health Improvement Plan.
