?? Amid cheers and applause, we had the joy of celebrating Former Mayor Federico F. Pe?a at Denver Health! We unveiled a portrait of this tremendous public servant at our health center that happily bears his name, the Federico F. Pe?a Family Health Center. Our CEO Donna Lynne praised Mayor Pe?a for his enduring dedication to uplifting those underserved in our community. In Donna's words: “It's his inspiring drive to lift others, especially the often marginalized, that aligns perfectly with what we do here at Denver Health.” Pe?a was gracious and reminded everyone how vital Denver Health's work is, touching on the essential health services available at the center. Emphasizing his point, Pe?a stated, “I can’t imagine how many lives have been saved just because of this one center...Let’s continue to support this extraordinary institution.” The tenacious duo, Pe?a and his wife Cindy, were instrumental in the creation of this center. In acknowledgment of their tireless efforts, Donna added, "Federico and Cindy were the driving forces behind this very building. This center is an incredible pillar of the community, and a symbol of what it means to come from the community and work with the community.” ?? Ever since the Federico F. Pe?a Family Health Center opened up its doors in 2016, it has been an integral part of our Denver Health family and has seen over 111,000 patients! The beautiful portrait of Pe?a was painted by local talent Sierra Montoya Barela and now greets everyone near the entrance of the health center. As we come to an end of #HispanicHeritageMonth, we hope it serves as a symbol and reminder of the man who has done so much for Denver and our Hispanic communities. ??? #WeApplaud #ThankYou #HealthEquity #TheHeartofDenver #DHSpotlight #FHC #DHCommunity City and County of Denver

Anyone passing by the Denver Health Outpatient Medical Center on Speer Blvd. will notice we’ve gone pink for October ??! All month long, as part of #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth, we’re projecting this important nightly reminder for all persons with breasts age 40 and above to make sure they have regular mammograms scheduled. If you haven’t done so, you can schedule your appointment with our Breast Imaging team through your MyChart account or by calling 303-602-4140. No matter your age, it’s always important to talk to your primary care provider about risk factors to see if you need to be screened earlier or more often, especially if breast cancer is in your genetics. Randy C. Miles, MD, MPH, Chief of Breast Imaging, writes about the biological factors that play a role in higher rates of breast cancer among African-American women and strides Denver Health is making to improve screening rates, access and prevention measures among this group. Learn more in his blog at den.health/disparities. And don’t forget to join us Saturday, October 12, at Civic Center Park, for the Susan G.
