Colorado: Exploring Strategies to Improve Immunization Rates – A Convening of Immunization Policy Experts with the National Governor’s Association

Colorado’s governor requested technical assistance from the National Governors Association (NGA) in immunization policy.  Colorado held a two-day meeting with national experts and local stakeholders to think through promising policies and practices to increase immunization rates in Colorado and identify 3-5 promising strategies in each issue area.  The first day was a “pre-meeting” to set the stage and the second day was a facilitated roundtable discussion. The meeting provided an opportunity to brainstorm, prioritize, and gauge support on several policy fronts.
