Agency Expectations

• Advance health and racial equity: Boulder County Public Health (BCPH) staff share a county commitment to actively contribute to the liberation of all people, especially those who have been historically and structurally marginalized and oppressed; and the advancement of health and racial equity.

Intentional efforts toward eliminating racism are foundational to transformational equity work. Boulder County government invites full participation and shared power with diverse racial, cultural, and economic groups in determining its mission, structure, constituency, policies, and practices; and serves as a place where members of all identity groups are full participants in decisions that shape the institution. The result is healing within the workplace and for employees, a place of alliance in combating all forms of social oppression; a Boulder County where we work with larger communities (regional, national, global) to eliminate all forms of oppression and assist in creating fully inclusive, anti-racist, and multicultural organizations everywhere; and improved health and health equity outcomes within the community.
• Conduct work in accordance with BCPH core values: Foster Trust; Demonstrate Respect and Compassion; Collaborate and Build Strong Teams; Be Flexible, Creative, and Innovative; Pursue and Support Personal and Professional Growth; Recognize Leadership in Everyone; and Promote Inclusion and Honor the Life Experiences of Others.
