Overview

The Colorado Parent Advocacy Network (CPAN) advocates for parental rights in education, child upbringing, and medical decision-making, and promotes transparency, accountability, and non-political education while empowering parents to protect their childrens well-being.
What it reported doing in 2024

Using investigative research, media engagement, and legislative efforts, CPAN continues to defend parental authority in education and medical decisions
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 93% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
