Help End Domestic Abuse in Colorado


Domestic abuse impacts thousands of Coloradoans each year. All Coloradoans can help to ensure the safety and well-being of victims and their families.

CDAF contributions support domestic violence programs and services such as:


  • 24-Hour emergency access to shelter and advocacy
  • Safety planning with victims and their children
  • Safehousing including emergency and long-term housing
  • Support groups, counseling and advocacy
  • Information and referrals for victims to secure resources
  • Prevention efforts to end the cycle of domestic abuse
  • Community education
