What is happening in Colorado?
A Colorado 2-1-1 Steering Committee, co-chaired by Mile High United Way and FirstCall (an information and referral service in Larimer County) developed a statewide plan for implementation of a 2-1-1 information and referral system in Colorado. Members include nonprofit and referral agencies, United Ways as well as others who support that 2-1-1 vision. This plan was approved by the Colorado Public Utilities Commission in October of 2000, and a governing board has been elected to oversee the implementation of the 2-1-1 system plan.
