All of the states are currently being affected by
Covid-19 and the state of Colorado is no exception. With that said, many
communities are pulling together resources to raise awareness and extend as much
support to neighbors and friends alike in their community. Below are links for
resources in the areas of housing and food. These are two essential necessities
that are greatly impacting families in the state of Colorado. Many people across
the United States experience food and/or housing insecurity. This current
uncertain climate can exacerbate that experience. Many individuals are also
facing changes in employment which has a domino effect on these and other areas
of life. There are many ways the community can come together to support one another and make a difference.
These resources are brought to you by the Early
Childhood Council of Larimer County.
