At-risk Intervention and Mentoring (AIM) Medical Director Dr. Benjamin Li, participated in last week’s Doctors for America White Coat event in collaboration with the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. The event was held in Washington, D.C, bringing together 80 medical professionals, including doctors, nurses and emergency responders, to address the urgent public health crisis of gun violence. Discussions centered on the traumatic impact witnessed by health care professionals, and the necessity of implementing evidence-based practices to mitigate the crisis. Dr. Li emphasized the vital role of health care providers in advocating for comprehensive solutions and the continued need for resources to support initiatives like hospital-based violence intervention programs, such as the AIM program at Denver Health. Dr. Li recently secured a grant from the State of Colorado's Crime Victim Services, Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Grant Program for AIM in 2025. The grant will provide essential salary support for AIM's outreach workers, facilitating services such as trauma-informed and culturally responsive bedside interventions and case management for victims of gun violence, stabbings and assaults. “This is a public health crisis requiring solutions from across the health care sector, in partnership with the community,” said Dr. Li. 🧡 #GunViolenceAwarenessMonth #WearOrange #GunViolence #DisarmHate #EndGunViolence #CultureofCARE #FirearmSafety #HAVhope #WeApplaud #DHExperts

Denver Health made a meaningful impact at the Special Olympics Colorado Summer Games in Grand Junction last weekend. Volunteers from Denver Health dedicated their time to supporting athletes and raising awareness about our comprehensive services within the Special Olympics community. With a focus on holistic care, volunteers conducted medical, mental health and dental screenings while providing education and health promotion to more than 200 athletes and their families. Thank you to Nick Gagner, Dental Director of our Westside Family Health Center, and Sharif Abdelhamid, Patient Experience Director, for organizing this effort and helping to make a difference in the lives of these athletes and their families! 💙 #DHSpotlight #SpecialOlympics #SOColorado #StateSummerGames #HealthEquity #DHCommunity

Last week former U.S. House of Representative Patrick J. Kennedy, son of the late Senator Ted Kennedy, visited Denver Health's inpatient and outpatient behavioral health clinics including the Center for Addiction Medicine (CAM) and our new CAM Academy training facility. He spoke with department leaders and teams about how to better advocate for and fund mental health and substance use treatment initiatives. While in Congress, he was the lead author of the landmark Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (Federal Parity Law), which requires insurers to cover treatment for mental health and substance use disorders no more restrictively than treatment for illnesses of the body. His new book, “Profiles in Mental Health Courage,” offers an inside look at how ordinary people struggle with mental health and addiction. “The work that Denver Health is doing is extraordinary,” Kennedy said. “I’m so impressed by how comprehensive your services are and the systems-based approach you offer when it comes to behavioral health.” #DHSpotlight #MentalHealthAwareness #CAMAcademy #WordsMatter #SubstanceUseDisorder #TraumaResponsive #BehavioralHealth #AddictionMedicine #DHCommunity Public Health Institute at Denver Health The Kennedy Forum

According to Everytown for Gun Safety, more than 200 people are shot and wounded with a gun every day throughout the country. In an average year, over 25,000 hate crimes in the U.S. involve a firearm - more than 69 every day. Sobering statistics and one of the many reasons Denver Health is among hospitals leading the path forward with a comprehensive public health approach we call our Firearm Safety Collaborative. Today on National Gun Violence Awareness Day and throughout this #WearOrange weekend, Denver Health is lighting up Pavilion A on the hospital’s main campus to call attention to and combat the gun violence crisis while honoring those affected by it. Learn more about the effect that firearm violence has on communities, why the “Wear Orange” initiative became a rallying cry and how to access a safe firearm storage toolkit if you own or have firearms in your house.
