Help End Domestic Abuse in Colorado

  Content Server Image

Domestic abuse impacts thousands of Coloradoans each year. All Coloradoans can help to ensure the safety and well-being of victims and their families. Contributions from Individual State Income Tax Refunds to the Colorado Domestic Abuse Fund will support local, community-based efforts to end domestic abuse.

 

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
  • Children's programming and advocacy
  • Teen dating violence education
 

"I cannot even imagine what the last year would have been like without the assistance of Advocates and the FIRC.  It has been frightening and painful, but through it all I have felt cared for, protected and strengthened by these kind people.  I now know that I deserve to be happy and safe!"

"If the numbers we see in domestic violence were applied to terrorism or gang violence, the entire country would be up in arms, and it would be the lead story on the news every night."
