Overview:
ACCORDS (Adult and Child Center for Outcomes Research and Delivery Science) through the University
of Colorado School of Medicine and Trailhead Institute are contracting with two Asthma Navigators in the Pikes Peak (Colorado Springs) area to support the Disparities Elimination through Coordinated Interventions to Prevent and Control Heart and Lung Disease Risk (DECIPHER) project.
The aim of the DECIPHER project is broad-scale implementation of an effective school-based approach called Stop Asthma Attacks (SAA) to improve asthma disparities for children ages 5-12 years old in communities with fewer resources.
