Project ACCESS targets barriers, including geographic and demographic disparities in access to services, health care and safe environments. The partnership will seek opportunities to engage residents and leaders of Southeast Colorado Springs (SECS), an area struggling with rising poverty levels, high unemployment, and violence, to build capacity and channel resources for change.
Project ACCESS seeks to improve neighborhood safety and reduce exposure to violence among youth and young families. The BUILD Health Challenge grant will allow Project ACCESS to accelerate its efforts to bring faith-based, health and recreational organizations together to engage the community, improve neighborhood safety, and reduce exposure to violence
