Colorado Area Health Education Center (COAHEC)
Our mission at COAHEC is to expand the healthcare workforce by training students and healthcare professionals to increase access to quality healthcare in rural and underserved areas of Colorado.
COAHEC recruits, develops, and supports current and future healthcare professionals to deliver the best healthcare services to Colorado’s rural and underrepresented communities, where access to healthcare can be scarce.
COAHEC does this by providing programs for students interested in healthcare, events to improve community health, continuing education for health professionals, and housing for students on clinical rotations.
