Since it's beginnings in 1994 in Denver, Colorado Clínica Tepeyac has maintained an unwavering commitment to those in their community who have nowhere else to go for their healthcare needs. Along with providing the highest quality of medical care for their patients, the staff at Clínica is equally committed to providing preventative care and education that serves to promote healthy lifestyles and strong families; to deliver healthcare in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner; and, to increase the availability of health resources and preventive health education to the medically undeserved community, especially those who are primarily monolingual Spanish speakers. Clínica uses trained promotoras who are trusted members of the community and serve as educators and referral sources. Clínica focuses on health education including cancer awareness and prevention, diabetes education, child passenger and car seat safety, health literacy, Medicaid eligibility and enrollment, and nutrition.

Clinica Tepeyac is serving as a subnetwork regional lead agency of the Nuestras Voces Network focusing on CDC’s NCCDPHP Region H, which includes Colorado, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming.
