Southern Colorado Regional Program
CPC gains its strength from the power of its communities and nowhere is community power stronger than in Southern Colorado. Since 2003, CPC has been helping to organize Southern Colorado to fight, build and win a state built through community needs and grassroots activism. As a result of community response, CPC established a permanent office in Pueblo in 2005, hiring locally-rooted staff to continue bringing the voice of the region to a state often overly concerned with Denver politics.
We are working on a number of projects throughout the region that are helping to engage communities in the political process through voting, community forums, and community education. In addition, we are bringing topics such as racial justice, economic disparity, LGBT rights, immigration reform, and numerous other topics important to the Southern Colorado Community to the forefront of Colorado conversations.
Through our office in Pueblo, we are bringing community members together with unprecedented success as we call for legislators to ensure our livelihoods and homes are protected so that we can protect our familiies and community.
With voices across the state, we are fighting to build a Colorado that works for everyone not just the wealthy or well connected.
