Our mission at Early Milestones Colorado is clear: we aim to make our state the best place to be a child. One of many ways we improve early childhood is through collaborative funding that supports local solutions. Since 2015, we have disbursed more than $35 million to scale and spread change for all young children and their families in Colorado.
In 2024, our new Impact on Equity Initiative will fuel collaborative efforts targeting systems change, with a cohort of partners innovating in support of families with children prenatal to three. Early Milestones will prioritize partnering with the people and places furthest from opportunity.
Funding Opportunity: Powering Collaborations to Reduce Prenatal – Three Inequities Through System and Policy Change
