Community Organizing

We focus on community organizing to bring about structural change on the issues of affordable housing, homelessness and mental health in an effort to make a difference in Jefferson County. We are a member congregation of Together Colorado, a state-wide organization, for state-wide legislation and other social justice issues.

Special Projects

JUC CAN organizes to advocate for:

  • Housing Navigation Centers in Jefferson County (to provide services for the unhoused in one location)
  • Extreme Weather Shelter for the unhoused
  • Colorado legislation around housing, the unhoused and mental health issues
  • Affordable housing for renters and home ownership

We encourage community involvement, organizing and advocacy in municipal and county government.

We educate to dispel myths around affordable housing and the unhoused.
