Alternatives to Violence provides shelter, advocacy, education and resources for people impacted by domestic violence, sexual assault and human trafficking. Since 1982, Alternatives to Violence has offered victims the opportunity to heal both emotionally and physically in a supportive environment. Each year, we provide emergency shelter, safety planning, advocacy, information and referrals to local resources, crisis intervention, and housing resources to over 800 people. Alternatives to Violence was established in 1982 and is registered with the Colorado Secretary of State as a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization.
