We know that to improve wellness, we need to bring resources to where people need us most.

MIRA – Mobile Intercultural Resource Alliance

MIRA delivers resources and services directly to neighborhoods, community sites and workplaces throughout Eagle County.

Launched in August 2018, the MIRA bus (Mobile Intercultural Resource Alliance/Alianza Móvil de Recursos Interculturales) is a mobile clearinghouse for essential services in Eagle County. In Spanish, “MIRA” means “look” or “vision,” and it embodies the mission of bringing vital resources directly to the neighborhoods that need them most. Far more than just an RV, MIRA serves as a trusted community resource, delivering health education, support, and events that are tailored to the unique needs of the county’s residents.

MIRA operates on the principle of meeting people where they are—both physically and culturally. It creates trust within the community by listening to concerns, responding to needs, and providing culturally relevant services. From health education and screenings to public assistance application support, immunizations, food resources, perinatal resources, and early-childhood education coordination, MIRA offers comprehensive, no-cost services to some of Eagle County’s most vulnerable populations.

The strong community trust that MIRA has built through its consistent presence and responsive approach has reshaped the health and wellness landscape in Eagle County. By continuing to bring resources and health education directly to our neighbors, MIRA is not only improving access to care but also transforming health outcomes across the region.

MIRA’s resources and services are provided by a wide variety of local community organizations to achieve these goals:

Strengthening families focusing on strengths and aspirations by encouraging active participation and increasing the self-sufficiency of community members.
Build a sense of belonging in underserved individuals living in Eagle Valley by increasing or improving relationships between community members and community organizations.
Creating opportunities for community involvement in defining and addressing service needs and facilitating connection with organizations with emphasis in linking people with medical and dental homes.
Promote cultural and linguistic competence that reflect the community served.

MIRA brings FREE resources and services throughout Eagle County:

Information/referrals to medical services, behavioral health (adults/children), dental services, early childhood, parenting, and physical activity programs.
Enrollment to assistance programs: Medicaid, SNAP, The Benefit Recovery Fund, and WIC
The Community Market: FREE food

Volunteer

“La comunidad confía realmente en las personas que trabajan y son voluntarias en el autobús MIRA y sabe que van a recibir una buena atención. Podemos llevar algunos de los servicios que se ofrecen en clínicas y hospitales a la comunidad, a los hogares de personas que de otro modo no podrían acceder a la atención. La mayoría de los pacientes que vemos no tienen seguro, por lo que ayudarles a navegar por el sistema y ofrecerles exámenes médicos básicos es fundamental para su salud y bienestar.” – Kyler, Enfermera Practicante
Eagle Valley Community Foundation es un equipo de personas apasionadas dedicadas a establecer relaciones de confianza con los miembros de la comunidad a los que servimos. MIRA y The Community Market invitan a la comunidad a espacios seguros donde todos son bienvenidos. A través de nuestros programas las personas pueden acceder a recursos para obtener bienestar y vivir
una vida más sana”. – Dariza Martinez, Directora del Programa MIRA
