Be Supported

We all need a little help at times. From housing to healthy food or child support and medical assistance ― no matter your need, our team is here to help you be supported.

"I want people to know that if I can do it, you can, too.”

Twenty years ago, Angela was a single mother without a home for herself and her three small children. Today, she's a Denver Human Services employee with a passion for helping people just like she was helped.

Food, Cash, and Medical Assistance

Whether you need financial assistance to get back on your feet, help with grocery bills, or support finding health insurance, we’re here to help you stay safe and well and get where you want to be.

Child Care Assistance

Understanding who qualifies as an appropriate caregiver and finding one nearby can be challenging – and we're here to help.

Child Support

We help ensure children receive the support they need to be safe and well, even though they may not live with both parents.

Jobs

Finding a job can be a difficult process, and we’re here to help you access the tools, training, and resources you need to overcome any challenges you encounter and meet your goals.

Shelter and Housing

Everyone deserves a safe, warm place to sleep. We’re committed to preventing and ending homelessness by connecting those without shelter to resources, support, and services to help them regain stability and improve well-being.

Additional Assistance

In addition to connecting you to food, cash, and medical insurance benefits, we help connect adults, seniors, families, veterans, and people with disabilities to healthy living and emergency assistance resources.

Colorado Works

Monthly cash assistance for individuals and families, plus connections to community resources to help you get back on your feet.
