Crossing the finish line together. Scoring a win for every Colorado child.
We have come a long way,
but we're not done yet.
Colorado is a leader in covering kids.
Roughly 9 out of 10
children have health insurance. Yet, between 112,000 and
124,128 kids
are still uninsured – enough to fill every seat in Mile High
Stadium one and a half times over. That's too many!
All Kids Covered strives – especially during tough economic
times – to reduce the number of uninsured children in
Colorado. As a non-partisan coalition,
we advocate for sound policy and build public will.
The time to cover kids is now!

Colorado has a higher percentage of
uninsured children compared to the national average.
Further, our state is behind in
covering kids living in poverty. These children make up many
of the kids who are eligible for public
coverage, such as Medicaid or CHP+, yet not enrolled.
Join with us as we work to make sure Colorado kids are
covered.
