Action Alert for ECEA Members

Mar 20, 2026

Happy Friday!

We need your help.  Can you please do what you can to encourage your CCCAP families to contact their legislators?  Our state Senators and Representatives need to hear from families that CCCAP needs to be fixed so that more families can receive care and those that currently receive CCCAP funding maintain their benefit (some lose that if they miss their redetermination, change providers, etc.).  

Do what you can to encourage families to send a letter to their legislator ASAP.  There is a CCCAP Solutions bill coming out shortly and it would help firm up legislators convictions to hear from families that they need to get counties off of CCCAP freezes NOW!

 FIND YOUR LEGISLATOR  https://leg.colorado.gov/find-my-legislator

We ask you to do everything possible to encourage them to do that right away.  If they walk away and promise...follow up.  The bill hasn't been introduced yet but it's coming and when it does, legislators need to know already that it's something they need to support.  Only that will keep Colorado families and programs from suffering!


Want to know what a partnership could save/earn you?  

 

THANKS AND HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!  Fill out the form and find out at:  https://www.coloradoecea.org/membership-savings-earnings

Going forward, the lower ratios will only apply to programs rated level 1-2. CDEC is choosing to honor level 3-5 programs as high quality and let them keep their current ratios. This protects a lot of you and the way y...
