BoardEarly Childhood Colorado Framework Framework
The Early Childhood Colorado Framework is centered around the whole child and family, focusing on prenatal care through age eight. It is strengths-based, culturally relevant, and outcomes-focused, informed by evidence-based practices, and emphasizes cross-sector collaboration. The framework prioritizes family engagement, the well-being of parents and caregivers, family-friendly policies, comprehensive health coverage, and integrated maternal and child health services. It promotes mental health, caregiver training, high-quality learning environments, and family economic security, ensuring coordinated services for children with special needs and aiming for school readiness and achievement by the 3rd grade.
