Bettina Harmon (she/her)

Bettina Harmon has been fortunate to work with people living with HIV and the dedicated people that serve them for 26 years. She began her career as an early intervention case manager, later served as the Director of Client Services at the Colorado Health Network, and now is cofounder and President of Coldspring Center for Social and Health Innovation, which focuses on building resilience, equity, and trauma-informed services for people living with HIV.

Bettina uses her aptitude for technology to help organizations use their tech in a smart, efficient, and collaborative way so they have more time for the important work of connecting with the people supported through their services. She facilitated the development of a collaborative case management software project between 5 HIV service providers in Colorado that has continued to evolve over the last 15 years. More recently, she has supported BCAP’s effort to build their own comprehensive case management software.

Today, Bettina is dedicated to ensuring that the people who serve in HIV organizations have the training that they need to build programs centered in equity and trauma-informed care. She believes the health and resilience of the people we serve is intimately connected to the health and resilience of all service providers, our organizations, and ultimately, our communities.
