Join CFI’s Ambassador Program!
Tax Ambassador Program
Colorado Fiscal Institute hosts our virtual Tax Ambassador Program every Spring and Fall. What is a Tax Ambassador? We define Tax Ambassador as a knowledgeable advocate prepared to talk to your fellow Coloradans about crafting more equitable fiscal policies. Our training program is a six module train-the-trainer course, where we’ll dive into Colorado’s tax code, teach you the ins and outs of Colorado’s fiscal constraints, and build the skills you need to talk to your community about creating a tax code that works for everyone.
During the six modules, you will:
- Gain a deeper understanding of Colorado’s tax system and how it works
- Explore the historical reasons behind why racism is at the root of many of our tax policies
- Learn how we can use tax policy as a tool for racial and economic justice
- Understand how to take action for equitable tax policy
- Get all the tools you need to give a presentation to your community about Colorado’s tax code
- Obtain an official CFI Tax Ambassador Certificate
After attending the Tax Ambassador course, you will have all the knowledge you’ll need to talk about how Colorado’s tax code perpetuates racial wealth disparities — and how we can use that same tax code to right past wrongs and remove barriers to opportunity.
Dates for the Spring 2025 program will be announced in early 2025. Please email rotella@coloradofiscal.org with questions about the program.
