About OCR

Mission

The mission of the Colorado Office of the Child’s Representative is to provide Colorado’s children involved in the court system with competent and effective legal representation. The OCR also administers support and training to attorneys who represent children in our state, and advocates for public policy issues involving children and families.

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.

More than a Legislative Mandate

The Office of Child’s Representative gives voice to Colorado’s children by providing effective legal representation and advocacy in Colorado’s Court System.
