component of this work is intended to address needs identied in the 2024 Public Health Improvement
Plan*, specically Priority 2: Promoting Social Connectedness. These projects must directly serve

distribution of resources. It is through dedication to these efforts that gradual system-level change can be
accomplished.
*The 2024-2028 Eagle County Public Health Improvement Plan (available through this link) is a ve-year
plan directly informed by Eagle County residents. By facilitating conversations with community members,
Eagle County Public Health and Environment was able to build a deeper understanding of needs, and
potential interventions, that can change the root causes of health disparities. This assessment led to the
determination of three priority areas, one of which being the Promoting Social Connectedness. This
priority encompasses the crucial need for the improvement of social infrastructure throughout Eagle
County, such as equal access to physical gathering spaces, programs, organizations, public
involvement, and even policies.
Eligible use of funds include:
Community outreach, engagement, and building efforts
Community building projects which create belonging
Direct voice and involvement from populations served through programs and projects
Community member empowerment (training, strengthening connections, advocacy)
Equity-focused professional development - staff and board
Strategic planning and organizational development; board (re)development, capacity building, or
sustainable funding
Recruitment of a Board of Directors or staff that represents the diverse populations of the
community
Enhancing or establishing safe gathering spaces to better accessibility and belonging
Supporting the development, or strengthening of, community-based social support groups

Just as there is no singular LGBTQIA+ experience, there is no singular rural experience. However, many
people in rural par ts of the country describe their communities in similar ways: built around family and
close-knit community; centered around strong social institutions such as churches, schools, and local
businesses; deeply connected to place and the environment; and based in a sense of efficacy and self-
reliance to make change in their own communities. Cer tain challenges and experiences are also
increasingly common in rural America, including the ongoing economic hardships; addiction and substance
abuse, including the opioid epidemic; fewer or more distant options for quality health care; and more. The
challenges of rural life often lead to different consequences for LGBTQ+ people, and can amplify LGBTQ+
people’s experiences of both acceptance and rejection.
Though rural America is home to a robust population of LGBTQIA+ people—as many as 3.8 million or some
20 percent of the country’s total LGBTQIA+ population—discrimination and isolation are still par ticularly
severe challenges for queer residents in America’s rural areas, like Eagle County. Those conditions are
interwoven with exclusion from employment, housing, access to community, and other oppor tunities, and
with marked health disparities.
This very real need led to the founding of what is now known as Mountain Pride. In 2020, Britny Rose, Eagle
County Pride's - Pride in the Park inaugural organizer, inquired about Eagle County not having a pride
festival. Within seven days of asking that question, she organized a successful pride festival attended by
hundreds. This resulted in the formation of a "Pride Committee '' composed of Eagle County residents
committed to growing and strengthening the LGBTQIA+ community and its allies in Eagle County. Eagle
County Pride hosted a variety of social events, meet-and-greets, and self-care activities such as yoga and
dancing classes.
Through intentional community outreach and listening, we have strived to understand and address the
diverse needs of LGBTQIA+ individuals across these regions. Which led us to develop our four strategic
program areas; community, education, advocacy, and activism, and resources. In the past year alone, we've
engaged with over 3,000 individuals through our four strategic program areas, resulting in more than 5,000
meaningful touchpoints.
While the organization's origins may have been rooted in creating visibility and connectedness, its mission
has expanded to encompass broader systemic issues affecting the LGBTQIA+ community. The grant
opportunity presents a strategic avenue for Mountain Pride to deepen its impact through advocacy,
education, and policy reform.

founded to address, and how that may have changed over time:

Mountain Pride has an inclusive, coalition-building strategy aimed at establishing trust and credibility in
order to secure the organization's long-term success. Mountain Pride is constantly expanding its activities
based on community needs, seeking collaborations with prospective organizational partners who share our
mission and vision, and referring individuals to partner groups that can assist them with their needs. To
achieve our goal of better serving the LGBTQ+ communities, we will implement the following strategies:
Community
A sense of belonging is a strong safety net that can support positive health outcomes, particularly those
belonging to marginalized communities. LGBTQ+ individuals exist in every community across the mountains
of Colorado. Community events seek to grow connections, lift our allies, enhance visibility and celebrate the
LGBTQ+ individuals through fun events. Events will benefit a wide range of people, including BIPOC, youth,
adults, and families.
Provide monthly activities and events for our diverse LGBTQIA+ communities to connect and foster
relationships
Implement Pride in the Park, a resource that celebrates our LGBTQIA+ community, while providing resources
and connections to attendees
Host the regional community-wide Gender & Sexuality Alliance meetings
Education
Promote acceptance and understanding of the LGBTQ+ community by delivering training, workshops, and
speaking engagements to the community, organizations, health care workers, providers, schools, and more
on various topics to engage in conversations that will help ensure welcoming and thriving environments for
all.
Training for allies on language, pronouns, vocabulary, gender-affirming practices, support, and more
Engage community par tners in building capacity through comprehensive training and consulting services on
LGBTQ+ best practices, equity, intersectionality, and inclusion
Provide training and resources which help educate and empower our LGBTQ+ individuals
Advocacy & Activism
Mountain Pride will support LGBTQ+ individuals with difficult situations like discrimination and harassment
and help navigate suppor t services. We will advocate for reform, connecting with local and state
representatives, encouraging civic engagement, and making investments for the betterment of our
communities.
Cultivate greater LGBTQIA+ civic representation and public presence/ participation
Proclaim June as pride month with the Eagle County Commissioners
Resources
We seek to provide information related to the community's informed needs, such as sexual or reproductive
health services, suicide and violence prevention, mental health resources, peer suppor t, gender-affirming
resources, coming out, HIV & STI, and more. Peer suppor t groups will be available year-round to assist
individuals in speaking with specialists to reduce anxiety, improve self-esteem, and help individuals' overall
well-being.
Current Projects: Provide a brief description of the organization’s current projects/programs.

Our approach encompasses a multifaceted strategy focused on promoting social connectedness,
enhancing par tnerships and collaboration, incorporating community-based decision-making into our
operations, and fostering community-based education for allyship.
According to Envision You’s State of the State Survey, approximately a third of respondents did not feel that
they have a community to which they belong. We recognize the significant impact of this kind of social
isolation and disconnectedness on health outcomes for LGBTQ+ community members. To address this, we
have implemented various programs and initiatives aimed at fostering social connectedness within our
community. These include regular (multiple times per month) community events, monthly suppor t groups,
and other outreach programming that creates meaningful interactions and connections among community
members. By promoting social connectedness, we aim to mitigate the adverse effects of isolation and
create a supportive environment conducive to overall health and well-being.
We understand that addressing disparities requires a collaborative effor t involving multiple stakeholders
and agencies. Mountain Pride has actively sought to strengthen par tnerships with local organizations
(SpeakUp ReachOut, Eagle Valley Community Foundation, Your Hope Center, Mountain Valley Horse Rescue,
Habitat for Humanity), healthcare providers (Vail Health), government agencies (Eagle County School
District, Town Government, and Eagle County Government), and other relevant stakeholders (Business
Owners). Through collaborative effor ts, we leverage collective exper tise, resources, and networks to develop
comprehensive solutions to health disparities. These par tnerships enable us to pool resources, share best
practices, and coordinate services more effectively.
We firmly believe in the importance of engaging the community served in decision-making processes that
affect them. We actively solicit input from community members through various channels, including
community forums, surveys, and our advisory committee. This community-driven approach ensures that our
programs and initiatives are responsive to the needs and priorities of the LGBTQ+ community and those
who experience multiple marginalizations that we serve.
We recognizes the impor tance of allyship in creating inclusive and suppor tive environments for all
community members, par ticularly marginalized populations like the LGBTQ+ community. To promote
allyship, we offer community-based education initiatives that raise awareness about social justice issues,
privilege, and systemic barriers. These initiatives include public events, workshops, workplace specific
training sessions, and educational materials designed to empower community members to become
effective allies in the fight against injustice. By fostering a culture of allyship, we aim to create a more
inclusive and equitable community where all members feel valued and suppor ted.

“Building Equitable Systems for LGBTQ+ Empowerment '' is a transformative initiative aimed at catalyzing
systems change to address the root causes of social isolation and inequity within LGBTQ+ communities in
Eagle County. By strategically allocating funds across our four program areas; community, education,
advocacy, and resources, we will implement a cohesive strategy that leverages community-based decision-
making, fosters collaboration, and promotes social connectedness to drive meaningful change at the
systemic level.
The first priority of this grant is to continue our foundation for community-building to ensure that everything
we do is guided with the community at the center. Through funding we will facilitate monthly, collaborative
community events providing inclusive spaces where LGBTQ+ individuals and allies can gather, exchange
experiences, and collectively advocate for change. These events will be co-designed with community input,
ensuring they authentically represent the diverse voices and needs of our population. In regards to co-
designed, there will be specific opportunities for youth to design events for youth to foster belonging within
the youth segment of the community.
Education serves as a cornerstone for challenging systemic discrimination and fostering understanding and
acceptance. We will offer comprehensive training sessions, workshops, and speaking engagements to equip
community members, organizations, healthcare providers, and educators with the knowledge and skills
needed to cultivate inclusive environments and challenge systemic injustices. By fostering collaboration
among stakeholders and facilitating shared learning experiences, we empower individuals to become
advocates for systemic change within their spheres of influence.
Advocacy is essential for dismantling systemic barriers and advancing LGBTQIA+ equity. We will collaborate
with local businesses, organizations, and policymakers to advocate for policy reforms that foster equity and
inclusion for LGBTQIA+ communities. This includes initiatives such as establishing "Safe Space" programs,
cultivating LGBTQ+ civic representation, and advocating for the adoption of inclusive policies and practices
across sectors. By amplifying the voices of LGBTQ+ individuals and allies, we promote community-based
decision-making and mobilize collective action to drive systemic transformation.
Access to resources is critical for supporting the well-being of LGBTQ+ individuals and addressing systemic
disparities. Through this grant, we will provide vital resources and support through our initiatives of Gender
Affirming Closet, HIV testing services, behavioral health support, and peer suppor t groups. These resources
will be continuously evaluated and adapted based on community feedback, ensuring they remain responsive
to evolving needs and contribute to lasting systemic change.

Mountain Pride is committed to the operation and funding of our programs into perpetuity through a
thoughtful, strategic, and multifaceted approach to organizational accountability and structure. We have a
solid Board of Directors who is a committed group of individuals who hold the space for both being a
founding board and identifying as LGBTQIA+ community members. Each member has verbalized and
actualized a willingness to step into varying and more hands-on roles while building the organizations
(fundraising suppor t, event management, etc.). 100% of Board Members have financially contributed to the
organization. Another impor tant note on sustainability is Mountain Pride’s role in the renewed and
reinvigorated community commitment to behavioral health through the Eagle Valley Behavioral Health “It
Takes a Valley Campaign''. As a community partner, we are encouraged through financial suppor t,
professional mentoring, and more. Lastly, in achieving 501c3 status, we have been able to continue to
diversify our funding by applying to grants more broadly, growing our existing “Pride in the Park'' business
sponsorship program, and continuing our individual fundraising campaigns around Colorado Gives Day and
other effor ts. In the last year, we have received generous funding from various grant sources as well
including but not limited to The Colorado Health Foundation, Colorado Parks and Wildlife Outdoor Equity
Grant Program, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Sexual Violence Prevention
Program, Depar tment of Local Affairs Nonprofit Infrastructure Grant, and Vail Valley Care. As an
organization founded by community members, we are uniquely positioned to serve the community as a
conveyor. With this visionary commitment, we remain steadfastly committed to building upon a well laid
foundation.

The proposed project directly addresses Public Health Improvement Plan Priority 2: Social Connectedness
and Belonging by implementing initiatives that foster inclusive communities and promote social
connectedness among LGBTQIA+ individuals in Eagle County. Here's how the project aligns with this
priority:
Community Events and Gatherings: The project organizes community events providing safe and inclusive
spaces where LGBTQ+ individuals and allies can come together, connect, and celebrate their identities.
These gatherings promote social connectedness by facilitating meaningful interactions and fostering a
sense of belonging within the community.
Suppor tive Networks and Relationships: Through peer support groups, online resource hubs, and
collaborative par tnerships with local organizations, the project builds suppor tive networks and relationships
within the LGBTQ+ community. These networks offer avenues for individuals to connect, share experiences,
and access suppor t, strengthening social connections and enhancing overall well-being.
Education and Awareness: The project conducts educational workshops, training sessions, and speaking
engagements to raise awareness about LGBTQ+ issues and promote understanding and acceptance within
the broader community. By fostering empathy and reducing stigma, these initiatives contribute to creating a
more inclusive environment where LGBTQ+ individuals feel valued and accepted, enhancing social
connectedness and belonging.
Advocacy for Inclusive Policies: Through collaborative advocacy efforts with local businesses,
organizations, and policymakers, the project advocates for policies and practices that promote equity and
inclusion for LGBTQIA+ communities. By addressing systemic barriers and advocating for systemic change,
the project creates environments where LGBTQIA+ individuals feel affirmed and suppor ted, fostering social
connectedness and a sense of belonging.
In summary, the proposed project directly contributes to Public Health Improvement Plan Priority 2 by
implementing initiatives that promote social connectedness and belonging among LGBTQ+ individuals in

We will implement a comprehensive data collection and evaluation plan to measure progress towards our
goals, assess the impact of our interventions, and identify areas for improvement. This involves collecting
both quantitative and qualitative data through surveys, interviews, focus groups, and client satisfaction
assessments. Regular monitoring and evaluation will enable us to track outcomes, make adjustments as
needed, and demonstrate the effectiveness of our effor ts.
We solicit community feedback to assess and evaluate our work. It is through this process that we hope to
address more complex and persistent issues. This evaluation also provides information with which we can
consult state and national level experts on best practices, as well as allowing our community to become
part of state and national solutions.

For measuring outputs, the organization will employ various quantitative metrics to track program activities'
direct results:
Number of people engaged: Keep a tally of attendees at community events and the total they attend
throughout the year.
Number of hours of staff time: Document staff hours dedicated to organizing and executing events,
workshops, training sessions, and advocacy effor ts.
Attendance: Track attendance at educational workshops, training sessions, and Safe Space programs to
assess par ticipation levels.
For measuring outcomes, the organization will focus on assessing specific changes in individuals or
organizations, such as behavior, attitudes, knowledge, and relationships:
Behavior and attitudes: Conduct surveys or interviews before and after events and workshops to gauge
shifts in attitudes towards LGBTQ+ individuals and their rights.
Knowledge: Assess par ticipants' understanding of LGBTQ+ issues through pre- and post-event quizzes or
evaluations.
Relationships: Monitor the establishment of "Safe Space" programs with local businesses and organizations
to observe improvements in LGBTQ+ individuals' feelings of support and inclusion.
Fur thermore, for longer-term outcomes:
Self-advocacy: Track par ticipation in peer suppor t groups and capacity-building oppor tunities to measure
individuals' empowerment and advocacy skills development.
Policy reforms: Monitor changes in local and state policies related to LGBTQ+ rights and protections to
evaluate the impact of advocacy efforts.
Systemic change: Continuously gather community feedback and conduct evaluations to assess the
effectiveness of project activities in driving lasting systemic change and adapt strategies accordingly.

This project addresses root causes by targeting systemic barriers and inequities faced by LGBTQ+
communities in Eagle County. According to the Grant Information Packet, root causes are underlying factors
that contribute to social disparities and must be addressed to create lasting change. Here's how our project
aligns with this definition:
Social Isolation and Discrimination: The project aims to tackle the pervasive issue of social isolation and
discrimination experienced by LGBTQ+ individuals in Eagle County. By fostering inclusive communities
through community events, education initiatives, and advocacy effor ts, we address the root causes of social
disparities and promote social connectedness.
Limited Access to Resources and Support Services: LGBTQ+ individuals often face barriers in accessing
essential resources and suppor t services, including healthcare, housing, and employment. Our project seeks
to address this issue by providing vital resources such as an online resource hub, Gender Affirming Closet,
and HIV testing services tailored to the needs of LGBTQ+ individuals. By addressing the root causes of
limited access to resources, we aim to promote equity and improve the well-being of LGBTQ+ communities
in Eagle County.
Systemic Discrimination and Prejudice: Systemic discrimination and prejudice contribute to disparities in
access to healthcare, employment, and other essential services for LGBTQ+ individuals. Through
collaborative advocacy effor ts and policy reforms, our project seeks to dismantle systemic barriers and
promote equity and inclusion for LGBTQ+ communities. By addressing the root causes of systemic
discrimination, we aim to create a more equitable and inclusive environment where all individuals can live
authentically and thrive.
In summary, our project directly targets root causes by addressing systemic barriers and inequities faced by
LGBTQ+ communities in Eagle County. Through community engagement, education, advocacy, and resource
provision, we aim to create lasting change that promotes social connectedness, equity, and inclusion for all
individuals.

Mountain Pride was created by our LGBTQ+ community growing out of our Pride in the Park committee
following our 2020 Pride in the Park. A grassroots organization of local people, we are uniquely positioned
to serve as a community convener. We pull together LGBTQ+ individuals and groups for brainstorming,
planning, implementation, and program assessments to address the needs of our rural LGBTQ+ community.
The original Pride in the Park group is still in formation and serves as the foundation for our organization.
This entire group identifies as par t of the LGBTQ+ community and includes individuals from all walks of life
and school and professional circles so they serve as our listening ears to the entire community. Out of this
group, our Executive Director stepped up first in a volunteer capacity to formalize the organization and then
eventually as the first hired staff. During this time, a Board of Directors was recruited from a diverse
convergence of skills and experiences, focusing on diversity within the LGBTQ+ community. The Pride in the
Park committee is now the Pride committee and works year round to gather feedback from the community
and plan events accordingly while the Board serves an advisory role specifically focusing on fiduciary
responsibility. Our Board of Directors is also composed of majorly queer individuals, 88% to be exact.
Our school based GSAs are student-run and lead. Students meet and connect with other trans and queer
students in their school. They work to create safe spaces and talk about the various issues they face in
school or their broader communities, such as discrimination from teachers or school administrators.
Students take a leadership role to improve school climate through campaigns and events that raise
awareness and change policies or practices in their schools.
Our community based GSAs is another way in which we are encouraging leadership and soliciting direction
from our community. They are structured similarly in our in schools programs but focus more on community
issues impacting adults and families outside of the school setting.

The core of Mountain Pride is a steadfast commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, specific to
the LGBTQ+ community. All staff identify at LGBTQ+ and share many lived experiences with those that we
serve and seek to serve. We recognize however, the complexity of identifying with multiple marginalized
identities including but not limited to gender expansiveness, race, ethnicity, language, documentation status,
ability, and religion.
100% of staff are members of the LBGTQ+ community and over 90% of the Board of Directors is as well.
In Eagle County, where over 60,000 people reside, 31.6% are Latinx, with 51% Latinx student enrollment and
56% representing minority groups in the school district. Notably, 20% of residents are foreign-born
compared to Colorado's 9.7%, and 31% speak a language other than English at home, nearly double the
state's 16.7%. Specifically addressing the JEDI needs in our community and the complexity of multiple
marginalized identities, one of our foci is on the queer Hispanic community. Community-based leaders,
identifying as queer and Hispanic, lead effor ts including events like Hispanic Drag Shows, tailored
communication on Spanish radio stations and bilingual social media posts. Spanish language peer support
groups are also established.
Another area of focus is addressing the needs and challenges of the gender expansive community.
Throughout queer history this group has been erased from the narrative and thus the resources. We have
Board leadership that reflects this community, bring education specific to the issues this community faces
to our community including but not limited to focus on athletics and medical transition, as well as have
offered specific peer support groups led by and for this community.
