Community Resources

The lead agency for the East Denver Collaborative is Denver Children’s Home (DCH). Denver Children’s Home has been an active community contributor for 132 years and strongly supports the Family to Family mission

In conjunction with Denver Children’s Home and our more than 60 community partners, the East Denver Collaborative pulls our vibrant community together under the same mission—to strengthen families. It is through these strong community partnerships that East Denver children and their families are supported to thrive and grow.

The EDC thanks each of our community partners, and we are delighted to acknowledge those who have agreed to be listed here.

If you need to refer someone to Family to Family Denver for help, please fill out this Referral Form. If you are in need of help, someone will fill out this form when you contact us on your behalf.
