CO-HYPAC
CO-HYPAC: Colorado Hygienists’ Political Action Committee
CO-HYPAC is the political action arm of the Colorado Dental Hygienists’ Association.
We support candidates and policies that protect and advance the dental hygiene profession, expand access to oral health care, and strengthen Colorado’s oral health workforce.
What CO-HYPAC Does
CO-HYPAC helps ensure that the voices of Colorado dental hygienists are heard at the state Capitol by:
-
Supporting pro-oral-health and pro-hygienist candidates
-
Building relationships with legislators
-
Providing education on policy issues affecting dental hygiene practice
-
Elevating the profession’s role in prevention, public health, and community care
Why Your Support Matters
Legislative decisions directly shape your ability to practice—including scope of practice, collaborative agreements, reimbursement models, and access to diverse care settings.
CO-HYPAC empowers hygienists to influence these decisions and protect the future of the profession.
Every contribution—small or large—helps maintain a strong, unified presence in Colorado policy discussions.
