Colorado was selected to participate in a national effort to rethink child welfare by creating the conditions for strong, thriving families where children are free from harm. The Partnership is focusing on three key priority areas: 1) aligning funding streams, programs, and outcomes within state systems; 2) strengthening services and support throughout pregnancy and the first year of parenting; and 3) changing community norms to increase social connections and community support for families.
