Triad Bright Futures

All donations received by Colorado Statewide Parent Coalition will go directly to Triad Bright Futures!

At Triad Bright Futures, we recognize that the challenges facing young children and their families are complex and interconnected, and no single organization can solve them alone. That’s why early childhood partners came together to create the Bright Futures Roadmap, a community-wide strategy to support the health and well-being of families with young children in Jefferson, Gilpin and Clear Creek counties. Our vision is that all families have the support they need to promote their child’s health and well-being for sustained success in school and in life. 

Triad Bright Futures provides:

Coordination with community partners to expand access to:

• Quality early care and education 
• Family support and home visitation 
• Mental health consultation and resources
• Child development screening, assessment, and referrals

Information and resources for families: 

• Connections to parenting support/home visiting 
• Tips to promote learning, birth through age 8
• Information about child development

Support for families and providers to enroll in the Colorado Universal Preschool Program. 

In 2024, we've seen significant progress in systems coordination and improved access to services: 

• We’ve helped 8,000 children in our counties receive Colorado Universal Preschool (UPK) funding and connected families to resources during the past two school years. UPK provides between $6,000 and $10,000 in financial assistance with tuition for children the year before they enter kindergarten. 
• We convened representatives from 38 organizations across Jeffco, Gilpin & Clear Creek counties to work toward collective goals streamline access to services, support early childhood workforce development, and strengthen connections among partners.
• We completed a six-month early childhood community needs assessment with community partners and families in Clear Creek and Gilpin Counties.

By working together, we are leveraging our combined expertise, resources, and relationships to address the root causes of inequities in early childhood development and education. With your support, we can amplify this collective effort and build a system where all children, regardless of their background, are given the best possible chance to thrive.
