About Tri-Lakes Silver Alliance
Tri-Lakes Silver Alliance was established in 1996, under the name Tri-Lakes Health Advocacy Partnership, as a 501(c)(3) organization serving Monument, Palmer Lake, Woodmoor, Gleneagle and the unincorporated areas of northern El Paso County. With a re-focusing of services to senior citizens, the board of directors, in 2015, adopted the name "Silver Alliance".
