Founded in 1997, the Colorado Coalition for the Medically Underserved is a membership-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Denver. CCMU develops and advocates for public policies that provide access to affordable, timely, and quality health care for everyone in Colorado.

CCMU's primary initiatives at this time are working to provide access to care for Colorado children through the KidzBlitz program and the 2010: All Kids Covered Initiative. Together, these programs seek to expand access to and improve care in publicly funded programs such as Medicaid and the Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+). Through volunteers, KidzBlitz reaches out to families whose children may qualify for public programs and helps them to navigate through their options and the application process. The 2010 Initiative, a collaborative effort of more than 50 organizations, seeks to provide health coverage for all Colorado children by the year 2010 through legislation and strong public policy.

CCMU also sponsors an annual conference, resources for those looking for insurance or help with health care, and numerous publications on topics critical to the health care debate.
