Greeley, CO 80631
Dear Mrs. Leffler:
The Weld County Area Agency on Aging is submitting this proposal to the North Colorado
Medical Center Foundation for a $10,000 grant to further expand the Dental, Vision and Hearing
Program. This ongoing program has enabled needy Weld County residents who are sixty (60)
and older to apply for dental, vision and/or hearing financial assistance.
In fiscal year 2005-2006, the NCMC Foundation awarded the Weld County Area Agency on
Aging $ 5,000. We were able to commit funds to provide dental and vision services to eleven
(11) recipients. The average dollars allocated per client for dental service was $ 490 and
$ 325 for vision services. One client received both dental and vision services.
With assistance from the North Colorado Medical Foundation, we will continue to reach older
adults who can benefit from this growing program. Thank you, for empowering us to enable
those eleven (11) older adults to obtain services that promote a healthy quality of life.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Alvarado, Coordinator
Area Agency on Aging-Dental, Vision & Hearing Program

General Information
.1. ,.lnt-. -k -I_;_l. or. _igm,lc supp.t syst _i .•_ V, ..",. resident_
who are sixty (60) years of age and older as well as their caregivers. The
Area Agency on Aging is a county agency in the Human Services Department, governed
by the Weld County Board of Commissioners and receives support from a sixteen (16)
member community advisory board. The primary goal of the agency is to help older
individuals maintain independence and dignity in their home and community. Support
services for older adults are provided directly by the Area Agency on Aging or through
contracts with community agencies. The Area Agency on Aging is a help source for
older adults and their children seeking information and assistance about vital senior
services. Some of the services provided directly by the Area Agency on Aging include
Legal Assistance, Senior Nutrition, Dental/Vision/Hearing Program, Chore Program,
Family Caregiver, Long Term Care Ombudsman and Case Management.
Description and Purpose of Program/Project
In 1998, the Weld County Area Agency on Aging implemented a Dental, Vision and
Hearing Program. Funding for this program and other like programs waS received from
the State of Colorado (Older Coloradan Fund) to the local Area Agencies on Aging. The
Weld County Area Agency on Aging allocated funds to assist older adults with
dental/vision/hearing services that they were unable to receive due to their limited
income. The Area Agency on Aging saw the value for a dental, vision and hearing
program because of the tremendous need and benefits it would provide the older adults in
our community.
The purpose of the program is to help low income Weld County residents age sixty (60)
and older who are in need of monetary assistance for dental, vision and hearing
services and/or assistive devices such as glasses, dentures or hearing aids in order to
remain healthy and independent in the community. We believe that this program is in line
with NCMC Foundation's mission of enhancing the health of the community and its
citizens. The recipients and services provided through this program are tracked using
SAMS 2000, our agency software system.
Supportive Research
In September of 2004 a state-wide Strengths and Needs Assessment of Older Adults was
completed. The Area Agencies on Aging across the state were able to obtain detailed
information regarding their specific region. Based on the information obtain from the
study over 2,500 Weld County seniors stated that they needed but could not afford
eyeglasses, hearing aids or dentures. We anticipate that the need will continue to grow as
1
the population increases since we do not anticipate programs such as Medicaid covering
these types of service needs in the future.
Key Weld County provider agencies such as Salud Dental Health Clinic, Sunrise Dental
Clinic, Catholic Charities Northern, and private providers, continue to express ongoing
.- denta. vision an:' henr mE ser•:ices an: provide a stead strew--_ (--_Tr Tat- +-
proeran_. m ndttion, dental;vtston;nearing program coordinator am other stat:
are made aware of the ongoing need when attending community meetings such as the
North Adams/South Weld County Resource Meeting and attending events such as the
Annual Weld County Health Fair. Seniors also call us directly regarding their needs after
they become aware of the program. To increase the community's awareness of the
program public service ads, targeting north and south Weld County, have appeared in
such newspapers as the Senior Marketplace News.
Population Served
The funding for this grant will continue to be used to provide dental/vision/hearing
services to low income Weld County residents age sixty (60) and older who are unable to
receive assistance from any other payment source.
In fiscal year 2005-2006, the NCMC Foundation awarded the Weld County Area Agency
on Aging 55,000. We were able to commit funds to provide dental and vision services
for eleven (1 1) recipients. The actual types of services the clients have received are as
follows: nine(9) clients received dental services; one (1) client received both dental and
vision services and one (1) received vision services. The average dollars allocated per
client for dental service was S 490 and $ 325 for vision; however not all clients used the
full allocation.
Amount Requested
Due to the funding received from North Colorado Medical Foundation 2005-2006, we
have been able to enhance our Dental, Hearing and Vision program in Weld County.
As previously stated in last year's proposal "The older adult population of Weld County
is expected to grow by 13,442 or 60% between 2000 and 2012 (NRC Inc, 2004). In an
effort to meet the growing needs of seniors, the Weld County Area Agency on Aging is
requesting $10,000 from the North Colorado Medical Center Foundation for fiscal year
2006-2007. We firmly believe that there is a need for these services; however, we do not
have the funds to actively pursue this growing need alone.
Committed Funding Sources
The Dental/Vision/Hearing Program receives the majority of its funding from the Older
Coloradan Fund (state only dollars). In State Fiscal Year 2006, $ 20,500 was allocated for
the dental/vision/hearing program. In 2005, the Dental/Vision/Hearing Program also
received a Community Health Investment Program (CHIP) grant for$10,000 from Platte
Valley Medical Center in Brighton, Colorado. The funds from this grant were restricted
2
by the funding entity for seniors in need who live in the southern regions of Weld
County. The NCMC Foundation grant dollars have been extremely helpful in meeting the
needs of northern area Weld County seniors, but especially for those clients that have had
an emergency situation (i.e. bleeding gums or pain/infection) and we were able to address
the needs immediately. Unfortunately we still have a wait list of twenty-five (25) seniors
in need o"-_ hay ,an" beer able ser'ice. ou n_
um,.auons
The Area Agency on Aging staff, senior organizations and individual seniors continue to
advocate on a state and national level for improved funding levels. The enclosed article
entitled "A Face to Senior Services" and the Older Coloradan Coalition's flyer which
spot-lights a Wallace Schreiber, a Weld County recipient of the Dental/Vision/Hearing
program is an example of a major advocacy effort that recently occurred to increase state
funding for senior services.
We will continue to view the Older Coloradan Fund as our primary source of funding for
the Dental/Vision/Hearing Program. However, with the funds from the
North Colorado Medical Center Foundation, we have been able to reach out to many
additional older adults. We hope that you will continue to view the program as needed
and important to the community and fully fund this 2006 funding request.
On a final note, when Mr. Schreiber was asked what the program meant to him, he stated
"Being able to maintain healthy teeth, in the long run, impacts my overall health, thus
enabling me to a id unnecessary hospitalization."

Greeley, Colorado 80632
Dear Ms. Jewell:
As you are aware, the CHIP Committee met recently to discuss your application
for $10,000 on behalf of the Weld County Area Agency on Aging, an
organization that assists seniors with vision, hearing and dental needs. After
discussing your application, the Committee voted in favor of the $10,000 grant
you requested.
We are making arrangements for coverage by your local newspaper and will
contact you shortly concerning a check presentation there in Ft. Lupton.
It is part of the CHIP policy to request that all grant recipients give an
accountability report at the end of the year following the date when grant funds
are received, or before an application is submitted for additional funding. Once
you receive your grant, we would ask you to honor this request as well.
Thank you for allowing us to be of service to the community through your
organization.
Sincerely,
John Hicks
President and CEO
your Community Hospital-, 17
