This application for funding under the Tuberculosis Elimination and Laboratory Cooperative Agreement CDC-RFA-PS-25-0003 will enable the state TB Program to strategically direct essential funding where needed to reduce TB morbidity and mortality caused by the transmission of M. tuberculosis from persons with infectious disease to uninfected persons and prevent persons from progressing from latent TB infection (LTBI) to TB disease. Achieving the goal of TB elimination in Colorado is contingent on the implementation and sustained focus on the following priority strategies: (1) identifying and fully treating persons with active TB disease; (2) treating individuals diagnosed with TB infection; (3) identifying and screening individuals exposed to active TB disease; and (4) identifying, testing, and treating populations a high-risk for TB infection and disease. The TB Program will continue to identify internal and external partners that serve individuals at high risk for TB infection and progression to active disease and partner with these agencies, organizations, and individuals to further the mission of eliminating TB in Colorado.
