Help for Victims and Survivors of Domestic Violence

If you (or a friend or loved one) are in an abusive relationship and want help, please visit our Crisis Numbers page for a list of domestic violence crisis service programs throughout Colorado.  These programs have specially trained advocates who will help you decide what types of help you need and create a plan to keep you and your children safe. 

On this page we have listed contact information for some of the most frequently requested services.  Below you can find resources for help with legal issues, as well as organizations that help specific populations such as youth, people with disabilities, Deaf/Hard of Hearing, GLBTQ, and cultural and religious groups.
