Support our work to elevate equitable employment for all!
We believe employment is for everyone and we consider it a privilege to contribute to the advancement of Employment First. Since the funding that launched COEF has ended, we rely on grants, contracts, and donations to support our work. We love what we do and our efforts are only possible with your generous support!

“I strongly recommend the Colorado Office of Employment First for any project or opportunity that requires expertise, dedication, and a genuine commitment to supporting individuals with disabilities. They are outstanding collaborators, colleagues, and advocates, and I feel privileged to have the opportunity to work with them.” -Liz C.

We believe Colorado’s communities are strengthened when all people are able to participate fully in the workforce.

The Colorado Office of Employment First sits under JFK Partners, the state’s University Center of Excellence in Developmental Disabilities, a program of the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Its creation was envisioned by Colorado Employment First Advisory Partnership (EFAP), a multi-state agency and stakeholder-led collaborative, and was made possible, in part, by funding from the Colorado Legislature and generously matched through the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) at the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment (CDLE).
