Thank you for your interest in Colorado’s child welfare disparities data. Approved users can access data through this password-protected site. The CDRC displays child welfare disparities data to state and county departments and other key stakeholders throughout Colorado. We are currently working with state and county departments to refine, explain and distribute the data in ways that are meaningful for relevant audiences.
A key element of the CDRC has been to obtain and use data from the Colorado Trails System to “tell the story” of disproportionality and disparities in Colorado’s child welfare system. For the CDRC to continue to be effective, data are needed to describe disproportionality and disparities at each decision point in the child welfare service delivery system. These analyses are presented statewide, for each county and at the community level. Data will be produced and distributed regularly in order to monitor progress in addressing disparities.
