💜 Here's to the next five years! Thank you to all our amazing supporters who came out for our "Under the PorchLight" Anniversary Celebration. From those who have been with us since PorchLight was just a concept, to those who have joined our mission more recently, you showed up and really reminded us how far we have come, together, over the past five years.

There is still work to be done and ways we can continue to grow as a community supporting survivors, but we know that with the collaborative efforts of PorchLight and our community partners, we will continue to work together, build solutions, and look toward the future.

Thank you to food and beverage donors who made the night extra delicious: West 29th Restaurant & Bar, Clancy's Irish Pub, Dangerous Pocket Snacks, ONEHOPE Wine, Uber,

This week, our friends at Kada's Promise stopped by to drop off some amazing new stuffies and hygiene products! We are so grateful for the thought and care that went into the donation and for one of our youngest donors making a difference for our smallest guests. (Photo posted with permission)

Thank you Family Justice Center Alliance for your support as we got established and through the years! We are all so much 💜💜

🌟 Happy 5th Anniversary, PorchLight, A Family Justice Center !
On February 25, 2021, PorchLight changed the landscape of survivor support in Colorado by opening its doors to Jefferson and Gilpin Counties. The PorchLight team treats every survivor as a "guest," providing a safe, warm environment to access legal aid, medical care, and counseling. Cheers to 5 years of being a beacon of light in the community!

💡Five years ago today, PorchLight opened its doors to our first guests. We are so grateful for the community, volunteers, partners, and staff who have poured their hearts into making PorchLight come to life. In five years we have had over 18,000 people walk through our doors and connected thousands to critical supportive services, lighting the path to hope and healing. You can check out some photos of years past, and give PorchLight a five to support the next five years at the link in the comments!

🏛️ PorchLight supports two key bills advancing at the Colorado Capitol that strengthen responses to domestic violence and close critical safety gaps for survivors.

🏛️ House Bill 26-1009 would require standardized lethality assessments during domestic violence calls, helping identify high-risk situations earlier and connect survivors to advocates in real time. Senate Bill 26-085 would improve coordination in cases involving military protection orders, ensuring stronger communication across systems.

These survivor-centered measures reflect what we see every day: informed response, timely screening, and warm connections to advocacy services can save lives.

Read on at KUNC 91.5fm to learn more about the bills at the link in the comments!

PorchLight will be closed on Monday, February 16th, in observance of Presidents' Day. We will resume normal operations on Tuesday, February 17th at 8:30 am.

If you or someone you know needs support during this time, please visit the link in our bio for a list of 24/7 support options.

We look forward to serving you when we return!

💜 Love is… believing someone the first time they tell you what happened.
💜 Love is… respecting boundaries without question.
💜 Love is… creating spaces where people feel safe, heard, and never alone.
💜 Love is… understanding that healing takes time, and walking beside someone at their pace.
💜 Love is… choosing kindness, consent, and care every single day.

This Valentine’s Day, we’re honoring the kind of love that protects, uplifts, and makes room for every survivor to feel safe and supported. Happy Valentine's Day from all of us here at PorchLight.
