                       Tuesday, October 20, 2015

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Red Rocks 
Community College's (RRCC) Health Sciences Campus for receiving the 
Arvada Economic Development Association (AEDA) Community Partnership 
Award.
   The Community Partnership Award recognizes organizations and 
businesses that represent new investment and economic opportunities in 
Arvada. The award is being given to Red Rocks Community College for 
their capital investment in the new Health Sciences Campus in Arvada.
   The Arvada campus is already home to RRCC's health programs as well 
as associate degree and general education courses that transfer to 
four-year institutions. The campus is currently undergoing a large 
expansion to help meet the needs of the growing health care needs of 
the community. Expected to be completed by fall of 2016, the new 
building will provide state-of-the-art instructional space for health 
sciences, enhanced curriculum for healthcare programs, accommodate 
additional students, and help develop new programs in line with 
industry demands.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Red Rocks Community College's 
(RRCC) Health Sciences Campus for being honored by the Arvada Economic 
Development Association. I am proud of their contribution to our 
community and look forward to their new completed campus and future 
expansion.
