These are the events by and for the disabled and neurodivergent community in Colorado. We feature these events to spread the word about these incredible organisations. We hope you take some time to check their websites out and support their work by attending!
– Jean Vanier
“One of the marvelous things about community is that it enables us to welcome and help people in a way we couldn’t as individuals.”
