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.
JUC CAN meets the first Sunday of the month online and in-person.
Visitors are always welcome.
