Aurora Health Alliance - Denise Denton
Denise Denton from Aurora Health Alliance was our speaker this week.  AHA does much of its work through interest groups, task forces, and special projects. The focus issues are based on the interests of our members, and opportunities and challenges that arise in Aurora’s healthcare arena.  AHA's vision and mission include: a community where all residents have an opportunity for health and to work collaboratively to improve access to healthcare & create a healthier Aurora, with a focus on the most vulnerable & underserved.  Their guiding principles include:
  • Serve as a catalyst, coalition-builder, and impartial convener.
  • Build and nurture collaboration in understanding and in seeking solutions to Aurora’s healthcare problems.
  • Commit to an inclusive, productive, and respectful approach to community discussions and problem-solving; one that focuses on solutions, not blame.
  • Seek to engage and listen to those directly affected by community health issues.
  • Offer multiple ways to engage in what we do, so that more people, communities, and organizations can participate.
  • Identify, promote, and build upon what is already working well.
  • Strengthen Aurora’s capacity by supporting new and emerging professionals, providers, activists, and leaders.
  • Acknowledge contributions and celebrate successes.
They have celebrated 10 years in the Aurora community providing access, expanding coverage and building collaboration. Aurora Health Alliance (AHA) offers an inclusive convening table where health and community leaders can come together to discuss and develop solutions to health access issues in their community: inadequate primary care capacity, limited access to specialty care, inequitable distribution of health resources, and fragmented approaches to solutions. They provide a practical, innovative, and open approach to collaboration, and we not only react to, but also try to anticipate, the needs in the community.
 
Denise was the Executive Director for AHA from 2014-2019.  She now provides training and board/staff leadership training, development, team building and collaboration, project planning, grant writing coaching, meeting facilitation, community capacity building, and workforce recruitment and retention through her company D2 in support of  AHA. 
 
To learn more about AHA please consider attending a meeting or review the newsletter in the link below.
 
Thanks Denise for the information about AHA.
