The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s Emergency Medical and Trauma Services (EMTS) Funding Program supports organizations whose primary purpose is providing EMS and trauma services in Colorado. Provider grants help maintain or improve local services; system improvement funding supports work benefiting an entire region or the state. The program funds a range of needs, from vehicles and equipment to prevention, personnel, recruitment and system planning.
Provider applications receive regional and statewide review. Regular system improvement requests are reviewed at the statewide level. The FY 2027 funding guide also describes separate education and emergency grant programs, which have their own application processes.
