CHIP Coalition Update:
"Thank you all so much for your dedicated partnership in fighting for CHIP funding over the last six months. Your efforts to generate calls, emails and postcards to our federal delegation, share information on social media, get news articles published, inform state contingency plans, and support emergency state supplemental funding all helped to keep this issue top of mind at the federal and state level and helped to mitigate the uncertainty Colorado’s working families were facing. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Click here for a letter that the CHIP Coalition sent today to our federal delegation, thanking them for their support of CHIP, and urging them to continue working to ensure funding for other key health priorities including community health centers and voluntary maternal and infant home visiting services.
The Department of Health Care Policy and Financing has posted an update to their Future of CHP+ website that includes a sample of the letter they are sending to CHP+ members letting them know that their coverage will continue.
Our national partners have continued to analyze the text of the Continuing Resolution this week and have published some additional blog posts:
Congress Must Now End the “CHIP Cliff”
This is likely our last email to the 2017/18 Colorado CHIP Coalition. If you would like to stay engaged in these types of issues going forward, we encourage you to sign up for the All Kids Covered email list. The AKC Coalition is finishing up a strategic visioning process and will have greater clarity around our collective work going forward in the coming months, but will continue to serve as a table that can rally to defend these types of crucial health care programs for Colorado kids.
