Colorado is coming soon
The full Colorado guide is not written yet. These official doors work today. They are not a list of every Colorado program, and they do not decide a case.
211 in Colorado
United Way says you can call 211 to reach a local 211. You can also search its page by address, ZIP code, or county.
United Way's 211 map did not list a separate website for Colorado on October 15, 2026. Call 211, or use the ZIP code finder.

State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) is the State Health Insurance Assistance Program for Colorado. The SHIP center says this counseling has no charge. It is not an insurance sale.
