PorchLight wanted to send a big, enormous thank you to our friends at Miners Alley Performing Arts Center for the amazing night of music and laughter they put on this week, benefitting our Center. It was a night to remember, and they put on a heck of a show! If you missed it, Miner's Alley will be having additional showings of Pump Boys and Dinettes until June 14. We definitely recommend you take a look at what is coming up on their schedule too- lots of great shows coming up!

Thank you to everyone who came out to support PorchLight on Wednesday. Without your steady presence and support, we wouldn't be able to do what we do. 💜

Today recognizes the start of National Crime Victims' Rights Week, and our community sits heavy with the memory of the tragedy that occurred at Columbine High School 27 years ago. Today at PorchLight, Attorney General Phil Weiser, Jefferson County and Denver District Attorneys Alexis King and John Walsh, elected officials, law enforcement, advocates, survivors, and community members all gathered to reflect on the importance of this work and look ahead toward the future. We are so grateful to be a part of a community of problem solvers who work tirelessly for those whose voices are not often lifted up, working to ensure victim services continues to be a priority in the future, and that the stories of those affected by violence are not forgotten.
Thank you to everyone who came out.

💚 This week, the amazing team at J.A.D.E. came in to PorchLight to offer staff and partners the opportunity to do some vibrational healing! We were honored to get to experience their amazing sound bath and and pause for a moment of intentional self-care.

In helping professions, taking time to recharge is not a luxury. It is essential. When we care for ourselves, we strengthen our ability to show up with compassion, patience, and presence for those who walk through our doors.

We are grateful to J.A.D.E. for creating space for reflection, restoration, and connection, and for reminding us that caring for those who care for others helps build stronger, more resilient communities.

Thank you JADE! 💚

At PorchLight, we are committed to providing a welcoming space for children and their families to heal, find support, and a pathway forward from trauma and abuse. We appreciate the hard work of so many of our partners who support children in our community every day.

Did you know that at PorchLight, we offer no-cost, drop-in trauma-informed childcare while caregivers receive services onsite! This makes it easier for many to attend critical appointments and get connected to support, all while knowing their child is safe and having fun in our playroom!
