CO Statewide Parent Coalition

The Colorado Statewide Parent Coalition believes that parents, school, and community must work together to ensure ALL children receive high quality education.

Every child deserves a strong start to their educational career and that starts with their parents/guardians and their childcare providers.

Child care is a lifeline for many working families across the state. HB24-1223 will streamline and strengthen the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program, opening the door to stronger support for families, thriving small businesses and healthy communities. #coleg #copolitics

It was such a great experience to visit the Colorado Capitol for the first time! The building is enormous and full of beautiful artwork. I can’t wait to share my experience with you all!

These FFN providers dedicate over 120 hours in class plus at home learning, home visits, portfolio creation, and coaching over the course of 15 weeks so that they can provide the best care for the little kiddos in their lives. Thank you! #TrustFamiliesTrustFFN

No child should erroneously lose their health care because of red tape failures.

#ChildCare is in crisis. Programs are closing at an alarming rate, under-paid providers are burned out & families are struggling to find care. The Early Childhood Nutrition Improvement Act can help make a difference.

When schools close for snow days (not that this will happen tomorrow) what is your plan? Who cares for your children when you still have to work? #trustfamiliestrustffn

Knowledge and information should never be something to fear. No matter who holds it. Young people, people behind bars, scholars, politicians, the unhoused. Knowledge and information are the basis of freedom and free will. #STOPBOOKBANS

[CO Statewide Parent Coalition @ColoradoSPC]

FFN providers offer holistic, loving, and culturally relevant care to children while supporting families and communities. Their impact reaches far beyond childcare, touching the lives of those they serve in profound ways.

NEW policy blog: I looked at the characteristics of census tracts in which private equity-backed for-profit child care programs are located. The results may not shock you, but reinforce why reckoning with the chains' rising market share is so important.
