Every day parents and caregivers impact Colorado’s next generation from pre-conception forward. Sometimes the issues parents and caregivers face hinder Colorado’s kids, especially in early childhood. Parents and caregivers need to be supported and engage themselves with services and policies that can help strengthen their families, prevent abuse and neglect, aid them if they’re struggling with adversity, and help them deliver high-quality care and strengthen their families so all kids can achieve their potential.
