The mission of HCAC is to promote social welfare by achieving single-payer, comprehensive health care for all Coloradans.

The objectives of HCAC are promoting social welfare by:
1.Informing Coloradans about advantages of the single-payer system of financing health care;
2. Creating and/or working with a coalition that will develop strategies for achieving comprehensive, affordable and high quality health care for all Coloradans; and
3.Building a grassroots movement that will campaign for a single-payer health care system in Colorado.

HCAC is a 501 (c)(4) nonprofit social welfare organization which began in 2001 in response to the increasing numbers of Coloradans who are not able to secure basic health care in our current health care system. HCAC views health care reform as both a human rights issue and an economic necessity, advocating for the adoption of a single-payer system which ensures that all Coloradans have access to affordable and comprehensive health care services.
