Employment First Staff Directory – Statewide
[UPDATED December 22, 2017]
Following is a menu of county links that take you to county contacts representing the Employment First program based on the county in which you reside. The directory is updated monthly. The listed representatives in each county should be the first point of contact for anyone needing assistance to get or confirm information, resolve issues or update status changes to satisfy participation in the Employment First program.
If you are uncertain which county you reside in, the following link may help you determine your county of residence based off of your address: http://colorado.hometownlocator.com/maps/
Should you need general program information, the State link is included in the below menu or you may continue to search the http://coemploymentfirst.org/ website for online answers to questions you may have.
