The State Court Administrator’s Office (SCAO) is not certifying or recommending any professional by inclusion in this roster.  Inclusion in this roster only indicates that the professional has submitted a completed affidavit to SCAO and that the professional has successfully passed a criminal background check with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation through processes and guidelines established by SCAO.  Inclusion in this roster only indicates eligibility for consideration of appointment by a judicial district or the Office of the Child’s Representative.  Judicial districts and the Office of the Child’s Representative determine final eligibility for appointment of any Child and Family Investigator.  A party considering requesting appointment of a Child and Family Investigator should conduct an independent investigation of the qualifications of a professional.  Being included on the eligibility roster should not create an expectation of appointment by the Court.
