Building Power With and For Community
Whether we’re leading voter engagement campaigns, mobilizing communities at Latino Advocacy Day, or organizing educational events, we create spaces where our community is activated. By centering our lived experiences, we inspire civic participation and build the futures we want for our families and communities.
Our decades of organizing and movement-building efforts have contributed to historic wins for reproductive justice. We engage in grassroots organizing through on- and offline outreach, building community power, and relationships.
Join us in building power at information sessions, workshops, policy briefings, town halls, lobby days, state capitol tours, advocacy trainings, panels, fundraising and volunteer appreciation events, charlas comunitarias, festival tabling, door knocking, phone banking, voter registration and education drives, rallies, and marches!
Voter Education
We do this work year-round — not just during election season. By tapping into our community reach and the trusted relationships we’ve built, we share clear voter education, push back on misinformation, and mobilize Latine voters in ways that feel culturally relevant. Latines are one of the fastest-growing voting blocs in the state, and it’s important to flex our power and turnout to vote for our future, our community, and for those who can’t.
COLOR understands that not everyone in our communities are able to vote due to age, documentation status, and other circumstances. Voting is one of the many tools we use, and every individual holds political power whether or not they can vote in the U.S. Click below to get resources and information about elections and voting in Colorado!
Who Represents You?
In our community, we know the game: when you’ve got the right card, you win. Civic education is the same. When we understand who represents us and what they do, we hold the winning hand. COLOR is all about giving you the cards you need: short videos, quick guides, and resources that make it easy to get involved. No jargon, no fluff, just the facts to help our communities hold the winning board.
Everyone in Colorado is represented, whether you’re eligible to vote or not, and registered voters use their vote to decide who is elected to represent us at all three levels: federal, state, and local.
Most people in Colorado have two U.S. Senators (statewide), one U.S. House member (your congressional district), one State Senator and one State Representative (your state legislative districts), plus local officials; city/town council or trustees, county commissioners, school board, and sometimes special districts (RTD, water, fire) depending on where you live. U.S. Senators and Representatives vote in Washington, D.C. and keep offices in Colorado. State lawmakers vote at the Capitol in Denver. Local officials make decisions closest to home about services where you live, like public health, housing and zoning, transportation, utilities, and school priorities.
