Request Board Approval for a Chronic Disease Self-Management Education(CDSME) License Agreement between the Departments'Area Agency on Aging(AAA)and Consortium for Older Adult Wellness(COAW). The agreement is to operate AAA CDSME workshops under COAW's license.There was a similar Agreement between AAA and COAW in 2008 but in 2012,AAA obtained their own three year license since funds were available through a grant with the Colorado Area Health Education Center(CC AHEC).This licensing period is now expiring and in order to continue to offer Weld County residents wellness programs,AAA must either purchase their own license or offer workshops under another license holder. AAA has had a long standing partnership with COAW. With this Agreement between COAW and AAA,outreach efforts will be doubled as there are two agencies working towards a common goal. In addition,COAW has capacity to reach a wider base of participants than AAA can do on their own. I do not recommend a Work Session. 1 recommend approval of this Agreement.
