Every chance for every child.
Über uns
The Colorado Children’s Campaign is a nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy organization committed since 1985 to realizing every chance for every child in Colorado. Using the most accurate, compelling data and research on child well-being and backed by an extensive, statewide network of dedicated child advocates, the Children’s Campaign champions policies and programs that improve child health, early childhood experiences, and K-12 education, help lift children out of poverty and provide all of Colorado’s children the opportunity to reach their full potential. Specifically, we work to ensure: • All families have safe, stable housing and the financial resources they need to support their well-being and achieve economic prosperity. • All youth believe they belong, feel vital to their communities, and have the resources, opportunities, and support they need to thrive in adolescence and beyond. • All families have comprehensive health insurance, strong social support, high-quality perinatal and reproductive health services, and ample amounts of healthy foods. • All children have equitable, high-quality early childhood experiences shaped by well-supported families, caregivers, and educators that foster social-emotional development, health and overall well-being. As the leading voice for Colorado’s children at the state Capitol and in communities across the state, the Children’s Campaign has been at the forefront of hundreds of policy wins for kids. Among the numerous laws and programs we’ve helped establish are the Colorado Preschool Program, Child Health Plan Plus, and the Great Teachers and Leaders Law.

Thanks for sharing this feature from Colorado Public Radio!
The Colorado Children's Campaign's annual report shows families are struggling with high health care, housing and child care costs after pandemic relief programs ended. "Economic security is foundational to child well-being. But, as prices for basic needs rise faster than income, too many Colorado kids are living in families struggling to make ends meet."

The cost of child care keeps climbing. According to the 2024 KIDS COUNT annual report from the Colorado Children's Campaign, the average cost of center-based infant care in Colorado is nearly half the median income for single-parent families and nearly 16% for married-couple families. Learn more about the latest data and what’s needed to make quality care more affordable for Colorado families from Colorado Children's Campaign below.
