Boards, Commissions, and Committees

CDEC administers several types of boards, commissions and committees, including the Rules Advisory Council (RAC), statutorily-created boards and commissions, and internal boards and committees. Learn more about each type below, and follow the links to view all of the boards and commissions administered by CDEC.

Rules Advisory Council (RAC)

The RAC offers consultation and advice in promulgating rules for the functions, programs, and services that the CDEC provides.

 

Statutorily-Created Boards and Commissions

Statutorily-created boards and commissions are created by the Colorado General Assembly, the governor, and/or federal statutes. Members are often appointed by the governor and/or General Assembly leadership.

Internal Boards and Commissions

Internal boards and commissions are groups usually created by CDEC. They advise CDEC on issues as defined by their respective founding documents and in alignment with CDEC’s statute.

Early Childhood Leadership Commission (ECLC)

The ECLC ensures and advances a comprehensive service delivery system for pregnant women and children from birth to eight years of age. The ECLC uses data to improve decision-making, alignment and coordination among federally funded and state-funded services and programs for pregnant women and young children and their families.
