HB21-1236 Deliverables

Representatives and data experts from state agencies contributed a great amount of time and energy into these documents. We recognize that these are living documents and updates will be required as legislation and policies change. Our immediate next steps will be further refining the documents to become more actionable for state agencies, ensuring alignment and cohesion within this collection of documents.
