Great Futures Start with . . . Action

The video below tells the story of the first six months of the Great Futures Colorado coalition, a diverse and growing coalition of over two dozen organizations.

As noted in this Colorado Statesman article, the Great Futures coalition is just getting started.

[Great Ed Policy Director Lisa] Weil said the Great Futures Colorado and the DECIDE coalitions were committed to working with other groups to make sure that something would appear on the 2011 ballot that would bring relief to school districts and public colleges and universities. She did not close the door entirely to working with the General Assembly on another effort in its next session. “If they’re interested in doing this, fabulous,” she said. “We’ll make sure they hear from their constituents. But we won’t wait for them” to act, she added.
