Colorado Five-Year Family First Prevention Services Plan

On August 23, 2022, the Colorado Deparmtnet of Human Services published this five-year Family First prevention services plan. Colorado views Family First as an important piece of a broader strategy to further evolve the child welfare system into one that truly improves the safety, permanency and wellbeing of all children, youth and families through a continuum of community-based prevention services and supports. Colorado’s five-year prevention plan reflects this broader vision and is deeply rooted in a strong foundation of practices and principles that have been honed and tailored in Colorado over the last decade . . .
