At the Foundation, community engagement is a cornerstone of our work. Over the last few years, we’ve worked to focus more on local communities and the health equity issues and policy actions that happen closest to home. Each community has unique strengths and resources from the Western Slope to the Eastern Plains – and everywhere in between. Understanding these nuances means understanding local city councils and county commissions better. It means talking with community leaders and advocates and working to elevate voices and important issues that may put good health and well-being closer in reach for the people of our state.
That also means sharing our understanding of “down-ballot” policy issues heading to voters each year. Whether approved by the community or not, policy issues will ultimately have a lasting impact on you and your community’s well-being.

Local Ballot Measure Tracker
The 2022 Local Ballot Measure Tracker is a one-stop-shop compilation of municipal and county ballot initiatives from across Colorado for the 2022 election on Tues., Nov. 8. The Colorado Health Foundation, in partnership with CRL Associates, has created this tracker for the third year in a row to create greater visibility into critical policy decisions being made by voters at the local level this fall.
This tracker is available to all and may be shared widely. It can be used to better understand your municipality or county’s local ballot measures or track similar issues pending before voters in other cities, towns and counties. Whether you are part of a large statewide association, a small, community-based organization, or work on your own, this tracker will help fill a critical knowledge gap for policy and advocacy activities happening across our state. This tracker will automatically be updated as new measures are proposed.
