The OCR's Mission:

The Mission of the Office of the Child's Representative is to provide Colorado's children involved in the court system with competent and effective legal representation. As a state agency, the OCR must achieve this mission in the most cost-efficient manner that serves the children and is accountable to the state of Colorado. The OCR is committed to ensuring that these children, Colorado's most vulnerable and under-represented population in the courts, receive the best legal services available.

The OCR's Strategic Plan:

The legislation enacting the OCR, H.B. 00-1371, was created to establish a program that would improve the provision of legal services and address the unique legal needs of children in Colorado. The statute creating the OCR contains comprehensive statewide mandates for the OCR designed to ensure enhanced legal representation for children. The office's central mandate is to improve the provision of services provided by GAL's, child representatives and attorney special advocates. Mandates for the OCR include administration, oversight and training provisions relating to attorney services
