Current events & happenings...


Participatory Voting
We are hosting a Participatory Voting Event May 22-25. Voters will decide which areas Healthy Archuleta will put at the forefront of its work over the next two years. Healthy Archuleta conducts assessments, secures resources, and supports community initiatives relating to food and nutrition that can advance the health of our community. We are asking that you look over the various focus areas and tell us what matters most to you. Learn how you can participate HERE.

Nutrition Security Health Equity Assessment
Healthy Archuleta, in partnership with Archuleta County, is working to complete a nutrition security and health equity assessment over the next couple of years. We are looking at two broad areas related to nutrition security and preventative healthcare issues and opportunities in Archuleta County and will seek to capture the voices and experiences of the community in these areas. Learn more about the assessment HERE.

Food Distribution through the Food Pantries and Other Partners
We honor and are grateful for the work of the six food pantries in Archuleta County.  The FSFE - Food Coalition facilitated the formation of the Food Pantry Network in Archuleta County and continues to support them through food resources and Food Distribution Center.  Loaves and Fishes and the Pagosa Senior Center offer resources and are a great service to our community members.  To get more information about the hours of operation of these champions, click HERE.
