Speak Up for Kids Day at the Capitol

A joint effort of Clayton Early Learning, Children’s Hospital Colorado, and Colorado Children’s Campaign, Speak Up for Kids Day at the Capitol is a complementary event that offers those interested in child advocacy an insider’s perspective of the policy making process. In 2021, we celebrated the 10th annual event.

Participants get the training and support needed to speak up effectively on the issues that matter most to Colorado kids. If you care about kids’ issues, but are uncertain how to make your voice heard on policy issues, this is the event for you.
