About the Trust
The Colorado Firefighter Heart, Cancer & Behavioral Health Benefits Trust was created to help the state’s fire professionals and agencies manage the human and financial burdens created by serious health issues by providing mandated cardiac and voluntary cancer benefits to the state’s firefighters. In 2023, the Trust expanded to include behavioral health support. The Trust program was designed with input from the Colorado Professional Fire Fighters, Colorado State Fire Chiefs, the state Division of Insurance, as well as individuals from municipal, county and special district fire agencies.
