On Feb. 7, the Colorado Children’s Campaign is meeting with community members from Cheyenne, Kiowa, and Lincoln counties to share and learn about how children fared during the first year of the COVID-19 crisis based on our 2021 KIDS COUNT in Colorado! report. The data included in the report illustrate the pandemic’s far-reaching effects on Colorado kids, from increased housing instability and hunger to difficulty accessing health care, child care, preschool and K-12 education. The report tracks the well-being of Colorado children statewide and also explores data on maternal mortality, housing instability, and adolescent behavioral health.

This will be a virtual event. If you have not received a Zoom invitation but are interested in attending this data presentation for Cheyenne, Kiowa, and Lincoln counties, please contact our It’s About Kids (IAK) Network Manager, Katie Creedon, at katie@coloradokids.org. If this data presentation is not for your community, please check our events and look out for KidsFlash announcements, where we will release information on community-wide presentations that may be coming to your county soon
