Over 800 people participated in the 21st Statewide Colorado Coalition for the Homeless Conference.
For more than 20 years, the Conference has served as an essential link for professionals who deliver services for persons experiencing homelessness, while emphasizing learning opportunities, advocacy and information exchange. Hundreds of participants - homeless service providers, health care and social service professionals, affordable housing developers, community and business leaders, legislators, government representatives, educators and students, philanthropists, members of the media, interested individuals and formerly homeless persons - take part in the Conference each year.
