Compliance.
Legislative wins matter only when the laws we champion are followed. That’s why CFF has expanded our work to ensure statewide compliance with liberatory pretrial laws. We’re observing, reporting, and advocating directly for compliance, often in close partnership with our friends at ACLU of Colorado. Below are examples of letters we’ve sent to system actors as part of this effort.
