HealthLinks is a free worksite wellness program of the American Cancer Society that is funded by the Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease and Pulmonary Disease Grants Program at the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment.

HealthLinks partners with local agencies to add value to existing program offerings in the area.


Employee tobacco use, lack of physical activity and poor nutrition among the workforce has direct and indirect costs to employers. Reducing the number of employees who smoke in addition to addressing physical activity and nutrition within the workplace can save a company money. HealthLinks delivers free evidence-based programs that address key risk behaviors for cancer and other chronic diseases. Physical activity, nutrition, tobacco cessation and sun protection are just some of the areas in which HealthLinks can deliver programs and services to worksites for free.
