Building a Healthy and Hopeful Future for Young People

Investing in the health, well-being, and opportunity for today’s young people, ages 9 to 25, is essential for Colorado’s future. At Caring for Colorado, we are committed to ensuring that all young people and their families, regardless of race, identity, or zip code, have a bright future. By partnering with communities, we work to catalyze and accelerate positive change, so every young person in our state can thrive.
