Losing color when starting screen session

I have a RHEL 6.9 host that loses its color when starting a screen session. Vim colors and directory colors exist before starting the screen session. Here are a few settings to help troubleshoot: - $TERM returns screen - I am using force_color_prompt=yes in my bashrc - echo "$(tput setaf 1)red$(tput sgr0)" successfully prints out red (in red) Any advice on how to fix is appreciated, thanks!
