Resources for Families in Need Denver/Aurora area

Hello All, When recently searching for help/assistance for an Aurora Family in need, I came across a ton of resources I thought I would share. Thank you specifically to the YNPN, Amy, and Lillian for your support! You helped make a difference for another family this year.

• United Way – Dial 211 from your phone

• The GIVE Center at Denver Human Services, 1200 Federal Blvd, helps with resource navigation for immediate needs.  Have them come in and it is a walk in Mon-Thursday 9-3.  https://www.denvergov.org/humanservices/DenverHumanServices/Community/GIVEDenver/TheGIVECenter/tabid/441774/Default.aspx

• Families First (Aurora) http://www.familiesfirstcolorado.org/

• Servicios de La Raza – http://serviciosdelaraza.org/

• Hunger Free Colorado – Food bank of Rockies http://www.hungerfreecolorado.org/

–          For food assistance, I would encourage them to call the statewide Hunger Free Hotline. It’s a multilingual, toll-free number that connects Coloradans to needed food and nutrition resources. All information is kept confidential. (It’s run by our organization, Hunger Free Colorado.)

–          Call the Hunger Free Hotline toll-free at (855) 855-4626. Food assistance navigators are available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. If they call after-hours or on a weekend and leave a voicemail, someone will call them back the next business day.

Hope this helps!
