Citizens Project

Citizens Project fights for equality, diversity, and separation of church and state. We believe that a vibrant democracy requires the voice and power of all people which is why we work to empower all, particularly those most marginalized in our community. We provide nonpartisan voter education resources and work to increase voter turnout. For 27 years, Citizens Project has been a fearless advocate and an engaging voice that educates, mobilizes, and empowers our entire community to embrace these values.

Colorado Immigrant Assistants

Immigrants in deportation proceedings are not entitled to legal representation at the expense of the state. An immigrant’s chances of winning are much higher when represented. We link immigrants who are in deportation proceedings with our highly qualified member attorneys who can take their cases at pro-bono or low-bono rates. By securing legal counsel for these individuals, we help keep families together.

Neighborhoods are the core of our community. But great neighborhoods are not great by coincidence. They are great because they are safe and offer opportunities for creativity, diversity and mobility.

We believe that a community that embraces creativity and making, and honors self-expression is a much stronger, more connected and tolerant community.

Society often discriminates against people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), inhibiting access to basic human rights.
