We recognize & assist
Here at Life-Line Colorado, we assist our local at-risk population in finding love, acceptance and safety. We focus on youth and adults alike, offering support and resources they may not have, to help them discover opportunities they may not have been given. Our mission is to spread love, security and safety throughout Denver, CO, and to see it ripple through our local communities.

We nurture every person’s mind and spirit, to show them there’s a path outside of drugs, violence and crime.

- Everything we do is geared towards prevention, intervention, and re-entry programming, with an emphasis on love, security, and safety.
