The Alliance, based in the town of Evans in Colorado's Weld County, is a creative and strategic collaboration of partner organizations that are dedicated to cultivating the health of the communities they serve.
At the Alliance, we recognize that health does not begin or end with medical, dental, and behavioral health services.
Health also depends on features of the built environment and on a variety of social determinants that make it harder for many to resist the chronic illnesses of our times.
Thinking globally, the Alliance acts locally and creatively to convene, integrate, and support community partners in our common effort to make northeastern Colorado the healthiest region in the healthiest state.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
