DENVER — As Denver leaders prepare to increase funding for the city’s STAR Program, the CEO of Servicios de la Raza, a nonprofit that helps provide resources to those who interact with STAR, is answering questions about how it is utilizing city funding for the program.
Last year, the city gave Servicios de la Raza $2.3 million in funding to provide health services to STAR patients. But during an October Denver City Council meeting where council members discussed STAR funding, Denver’s Department of Public Health and Environment told the Council that $700,000 would be left unspent by the time the city’s contract with Servicios expired on Nov. 1.
STAR Community Advisory Committee Chair Vinnie Cervantes said when the committee first designed STAR, it was meant to be controlled and administered by community organizations like Servicios de la Raza.
