This document presents a framework which can guide collective and individual organizational activities of the oral health network and community partners to achieve this shared vision.

The Framework to Advance Oral Health Equity in Colorado (“Framework”) outlines the key goals and strategies to achieve a shared vision to eliminate oral health inequities in Colorado.
