CKF Coalition
The heart of CKF is our statewide coalition. CKF partners and coalition members commit time and resources to improve access to Colorado's public health insurance program for children and families. CKF Coalition members and staff work to identify improvements in public health insurance programs, represent the needs of families and local communities in the policy process, and support local efforts to enhance outreach and enrollment in Medicaid and CHP+.

Members of the CKF Coalition include Medicaid and CHP+ enrollment professionals, healthcare advocates, state policy makers, healthcare providers, and others interested in healthcare. Membership in the CKF Coalition is not limited -- all those with an interest in Medicaid and CHP+ for children and families are invited and encouraged to join. (CKF is non-partisan and does not engage in lobbying). Coalition members receive regular email updates on Medicaid and CHP+ issues and are invited to attend quarterly coalition meetings and/or to join one or both of CKF's work groups.

To join the CKF Coalition, email your request to CKF Policy Analyst Brittney Petersen.
