Diversus Health Leadership

About Me

Adam Roberts currently serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Diversus Health, a community mental health center with operations across El Paso, Park, and Teller Counties. Mr. Roberts has held his current role since May of 2019. During his tenure at Diversus Health, Mr. Roberts has focused on developing a vision and strategy, restructuring the organization, improving internal and external stakeholders experience, and improving service delivery and operations. In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. Roberts oversaw the organization’s shift to a telehealth model of outpatient services in a span of 48-hours, minimizing the disruption of services to communities. Committed to positioning the organization for long-term success through leveraging stakeholder experience as a differentiator, Mr. Roberts has led a shift in culture to position the organization to be more client-centric. This included overseeing a comprehensive rebranding initiative that transitions the name of the organization from AspenPointe to Diversus Health.

Mr. Roberts currently serves as an executive board member of Community Health Partnership, a Colorado Springs based non-profit focused on improving overall community health in El Paso County and was recently selected to the Colorado Springs Leadership Institute.

Before being selected as Diversus Health’s President and CEO, Mr. Roberts served as the Chief Operating Officer (COO) for Valley-Wide Health Systems Inc., a Federally Qualified Health Center in Southern Colorado. He was responsible for the implementation of the organization’s strategic plan as well as the development of the organization’s behavioral health service line, which moved it toward operating fully-integrated healthcare clinics.

Prior to serving as Valley-Wide’s COO, Mr. Roberts worked as a senior staff member with the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) health care system both in Texas and in Colorado, where he was recognized as an improvement expert and is credited with saving millions of dollars for the VHA health care system while improving patient care and patient experience.

Mr. Roberts is a Colorado native and grew up in Alamosa before moving to Denver, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (Cum Laude) with an emphasis in International Business, Marketing, and Finance from Regis University. He received a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in Health Administration from the University of Colorado Denver, where he is now a board member on the Colorado Health Administration Alumni Association and facilitates an executive mentorship program.

Additionally, Mr. Roberts received Black Belt and Master Black Belt training in Lean Six Sigma at the U.S. Army Medical Department Center and School, Fort Sam Houston, in San Antonio, Texas, and, more recently, completed the 2018 UCLA/Johnson & Johnson Health Care Executive Program.
