Colorado State University Pueblo Awarded $510,000 From Colorado Health Foundation | |
Colorado State University Pueblo’s Denver-based Advancement team has been awarded a three-year $510,000 grant from the Colorado Health Foundation to support the project, "Grow Where You're Planted: Southern Colorado Partners Leading Advancement in Nursing Track” (PLANT). The proposal, stewarded by Alexandra Hansen, with support from the university’s Operations and Advancement division, was created as a collaboration between CSU Pueblo’s School of Nursing, the Graduate School, and the Extended Studies rural outreach program. The goal of the project will be to connect high school students, primarily students of color and rural students, throughout Pueblo and Southern Colorado with the resources they need to earn a degree in nursing and serve their communities who have limited access to health care.
According to CSU Pueblo’s regional development officer, Alexandra Hansen, “The funding through the Colorado Health Foundation is a first for CSU Pueblo. We’re incredibly grateful for the trust the Foundation has placed in our campus, and we know how needed access to nursing pathways can be for diverse provider representation and for expanding rural care. We’re honored to help close this gap with support from the Colorado Health Foundation.”
