Illuminating Health. Empowering Lives.
We bring compassionate, accessible healthcare and wellness services to underserved communities across Denver and the greater Colorado region — because every person deserves the light of good health.
Sunrise Health Care Inc was founded in Denver, Colorado in 2014 by a small group of passionate physicians, nurses, and community advocates who witnessed firsthand the healthcare disparities plaguing the city's most vulnerable neighborhoods. What began as a weekend mobile clinic serving 40 patients a month has grown into a full-service nonprofit delivering preventive care, mental health support, chronic disease management, and health education to more than 12,000 individuals annually.
Our name — Sunrise — is intentional. Every sunrise represents a new beginning, renewed hope, and another opportunity to heal. We believe that access to quality healthcare is not a privilege but a fundamental human right. Located in Denver's southeast corridor, our team works tirelessly to remove barriers — financial, linguistic, geographic, and cultural — that keep families from getting the care they need and deserve.
To provide compassionate, culturally competent, and affordable healthcare and wellness services to underserved individuals and families in the Denver metropolitan area, ensuring every person can access the care they need regardless of income, insurance status, or background.
A Greater Denver where every resident enjoys equitable access to healthcare, lives free from preventable disease, and thrives in a community supported by wellness resources, education, and compassionate professional care.
From frontline clinical care to community wellness education, our programs address the full spectrum of health needs facing Denver's underserved populations.
Our flagship Mobile Health Clinic deploys a fully equipped medical van to four Denver neighborhoods every week — including Montbello, Globeville, Sun Valley, and Westwood. The clinic provides free and sliding-scale primary care consultations, blood pressure and diabetes screenings, pediatric wellness checks, immunizations, and referrals to specialist care. Since launching in 2015, the mobile clinic has conducted more than 68,000 patient encounters. Our bilingual staff (English and Spanish) ensures that language is never a barrier to receiving care. We partner with Denver Health and local faith communities to maximize our reach and impact.
Learn MoreOur licensed counselors and social workers provide individual therapy, group support sessions, and crisis intervention for adults and youth experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance use challenges. We offer sliding-scale fees and accept Medicaid, ensuring no one is turned away for inability to pay.
Learn MoreDiabetes, hypertension, and heart disease disproportionately affect low-income communities. Our Chronic Disease Management Program pairs patients with dedicated care coordinators who monitor health metrics, provide medication management support, and connect individuals to nutrition counseling and lifestyle coaching.
Learn MoreOur maternal and child health program offers prenatal education, doula support, postpartum care coordination, and pediatric well-child visits. We work to reduce infant mortality and maternal health disparities among Denver's Latinx and immigrant communities, ensuring every child has a healthy start in life.
Learn MorePrevention is the most powerful medicine. Our health education team delivers workshops in schools, libraries, and community centers covering nutrition, sexual health, substance use prevention, and navigating the healthcare system. In 2023, we reached over 4,200 community members through 180 educational events.
Learn MoreNumbers only tell part of our story — but they confirm that access to care saves and transforms lives.
Before Sunrise Health Care, I hadn't seen a doctor in six years. I couldn't afford it and didn't speak much English. Their team came right to my neighborhood, spoke to me in Spanish, and helped me understand I had diabetes. They saved my life — I truly mean that.
As a pediatric nurse, volunteering with Sunrise is the most meaningful work I do. I see children who've never had a proper wellness checkup get examined, vaccinated, and loved. The staff here don't just treat bodies — they treat whole human beings.
I came to the Mind & Wellness program after losing my job and falling into a deep depression. My counselor at Sunrise helped me rebuild piece by piece. A year later, I'm back working, I'm present for my kids, and I'm healthier than I've been in a decade.

Last April, our volunteers and medical staff set up tents across Washington Park's east meadow — and by noon, the line stretched around the block. We provided 680 blood pressure screenings, 420 diabetes risk assessments, 312 childhood immunizations, and 188 mental health resource connections over eight hours of continuous care. Here's the story of how it all came together.
Colorado's diabetes rates among low-income populations have climbed 14% in five years. Our care coordinators share what they're seeing on the ground — and what your donations are making possible.
After completing Sunrise's Youth Wellness Workshop, six teenagers at North High School launched a peer mental health support group. Their story of courage and compassion will inspire you.
A decade of mobile clinics, community health fairs, and quiet one-on-one moments of care has led us to this remarkable milestone. Our Executive Director reflects on what 68,000 encounters really means — not in numbers, but in human lives changed.
Every photograph is a story of care, connection, and community healing.
