CJI's programs help us fulfill our mission to promote excellence, equity, impartiality, and public trust in Colorado’s courts.

And counter these alarming trends...

  • Less than 50% of Americans can name the three branches of government. (Annenberg Civics Knowledge Survey, 2022)
  • Public trust in state courts is declining, down to 60% in 2022, from 64% in 2021 and 76% in 2018. (National Center for State Courts survey, 2022)
