As a dynamic service agency, the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) provides leadership, resources, support and accountability to the state’s 178 school districts, 1,836 schools, close to 56,000 teachers and over 2,800 administrators to help them build capacity to meet the needs of the state’s approximately 889,000 public school students.

We believe our health care system should work for all Coloradans. So, we bring people together to ensure factors like race, income, and ZIP code don’t determine a person’s access to care and opportunity to live a healthy life. When we uncover common sense solutions to these complex challenges, we get closer to ensuring our healthcare system works for everyone. Because when our neighbors are healthy, our communities prosper, and Colorado is stronger.
