How to Help People released from Detention & Our Efforts with Arrivals in Denver
You might have seen one of our stories on the news last week. We are so grateful to get the opportunity to share about Casa de Paz's efforts in the community. Since the stories were released, we've received a lot of emails (THANK YOU!) about how to support us and our friends either coming to Denver or being released from detention.

Over the last couple weeks, Denver has seen an influx of arrivals. Casa de Paz has partnered with others to make folks feel welcomed.
Casa is also now experiencing weekend releases and over 35 people every day. If you'd like to volunteer and never taken our volunteer training, you can do it on the link below.
