Tennyson Center for Children and the Every Child Matters Education Fund are proud to be partners in presenting the *Children's Action Agenda, a legislative agenda prepared by a coalition of children’s organizations and advocates. We hope this agenda will provide a guiding framework for the 2008 Colorado State legislative session to benefit Colorado’s children. This initiative was born out of the realization that we do not currently have a comprehensive litmus test for introducing or measuring policies that serve future generations of Coloradoans. When it comes to education, Colorado spends $1034.00 less per pupil annually than the national average.1 Nearly one in six — 180,000 children — are without health care coverage. We currently have the second highest estimated prevalence of asthma in the nation. And despite having the 5th highest rate of per capita income in the US, we have the 8th highest rate of children living in poverty . As partners, we have a powerful opportunity to create a better world for the children of Colorado. You can download a PDF version of the 2008 Children's Action Agenda by clicking here.
