Accelerating the Transformation of Public Benefits Delivery in Colorado

September 28, 2026 | 2:00 PM - 2:50 PM ET

Join us for a conversation about a once-in-a-generation opportunity to modernize benefit systems in Colorado and establish a national model for replication. Launched in January 2026, the Benefits Transformation Fund is a three-year initiative co-governed by philanthropic partners and state leadership, that will deploy $5–10M in Colorado to reimagine and rebuild the technology, infrastructure, and capacity that enable households to access critical public benefits with speed, dignity, and accuracy. Learn what created the opportunity for systems-level reform, how partners are working together, and what this approach could offer other states seeking to strengthen their social safety nets.

Guest Speakers:
- Erin Currier, Senior Program Officer, W.K. Kellogg Foundation
- Elise Henson, Director of Strategy, Ventures, Gary Community Ventures
- Tracey Patterson, Director, Colorado Benefits Transformation Fund
