SPECIAL PROGRAMMING

Please note new Saturday broadcast time is 3:00pm.

In compliance with the concept of social distancing, all No Copay Radio’s interviews going forward as necessary will be phone interviews. We will strive to bring you as much information about the corona virus as it pertains to Colorado. We wish you good health and comfort as we go through this international pandemic together.

Our first guest is a long-time friend of No Copay Radio, Dr. John Douglas. John is the Executive Director of the Tri-County Health Department (TCHD) in Colorado, which serves Adams, Arapahoe, and Douglas Counties and is the largest local health department in Colorado.

Prior to joining TCHD, Dr. Douglas served as Director of the Division of STD Prevention at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); and Chief Medical Officer of the National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention at CDC.

John brings us up to date regarding the status of the virus in Colorado. We hope to have John join us weekly to continue to provide you with the latest information regarding the corona virus in our local area.

Jayla Sanchez-Warren, the Executive Director of the Area Agency on Aging for DRCOG, and our sponsor and co-host discusses with Murf what is happening in the metro area regarding the senior services available and their current status as a result of the pandemic.

Jayla not only tells us of the needs in our community, but what you and your family can do to contribute or volunteer to help these services.

If you have questions or need services, Jayla urges you to contact the Area Agency on Aging. They will try to answer your questions and help you through your challenges, and it’s Murf’s favorite term…it’s FREE. Please call 303-480-6700 to speak with one of Jayla’s staff.
