Hello Jeffco CTC Community Board,
We hope you had a wonderful holiday week last week! This email is full of many exciting updates for our coalition including a transition date and Executive Director hiring.
Coalition to Transition to CNDC January 1st, 2023
We are thrilled to announce that Jeffco CTC has officially been accepted as a project under CNDC with a start date of January 1st, 2023!
The CTC Executive Committee, coalition members, CTC contractors, CTC staff, JCPH staff, our funders, and CNDC staff are continuing to work through every detail of this transition to prepare. This has been a highly collaborative process that was made a success by each and every one of these groups.
This transition will be a very exciting time for our coalition and will come with many moving parts to continue to work through for the remainder of 2022 and likely the first several months of 2023. This will include transition and onboarding of staff, CNDC project orientation, transition of websites, creation of new contracts and MOUS, and much, much more! This will all happen while project work continues.
Continued Partnership with Jefferson County Public Health
We are also excited for our strong relationship with Jefferson County Public Health to not only continue, but grow in new ways. The insights, expertise, and passion from JCPH is invaluable to the work of our coalition. From assistance in the annual Youth Town Hall to data assistance to collaboration on the Out for Safe Spaces/BADJ Initiative (just to name a few projects), our work is intertwined in more ways than we can count!
JCPH staff have been involved in coalition projects since the inception of our coalition in 2017 and remain some of our most active coalition members to this day. We love working with them and look forward to continuing this collaboration in the months and years to come!
