The Statewide Equity Office is proud to come together and work alongside our other State of Colorado agencies to ensure that our systems, policies, and everyday work are inspired and driven by the message #ColoradoForALL.

Colorado For ALL means working toward a Colorado where everyone has the opportunity to succeed. It means we support the basic human rights of our neighbors regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, citizenship status, education level, disability, socio-economic status, or any other visible or invisible identity.

The State of Colorado Statewide Equity Office commits to supporting State agencies in community engagement, policy development, ongoing education, and equity in procurement as we work to rectify the historic injustices that continue to impact our society today.
