Housing Equity Coalition Inc

We're a Colorado-based nonprofit organization focused on equity, opportunity, and the collective flourishing of all people. The Community Investment Alliance partners with local communities to develop housing solutions across the continuum, create culturally appropriate services programming, and increase food access through strategic, community-led initiatives.

Our diverse array of programs aims to equip individuals, communities, and organizations with invaluable knowledge and skills crucial for fostering sustainable change. Through workshops such as Housing 101, we delve into the fundamental aspects of housing development, ensuring a foundational understanding for those involved in community projects. Additionally, our pipeline development courses provide strategic insights into the step-by-step process of project implementation, guiding participants through effective planning and execution. Moreover, our educational framework encompasses vital topics such as continuum evaluation, trauma-informed systems change, and trauma-informed care.

These programs are designed to facilitate a deeper understanding of systemic dynamics, ensuring a holistic approach to addressing community needs while emphasizing trauma-sensitive strategies. Complementing these initiatives are workshops on second-hand trauma, de-escalation techniques, and motivational interviewing, vital skills necessary for community advocates, leaders, and professionals. By offering this diverse range of educational resources, the Alliance empowers individuals and organizations to navigate complex challenges, fostering inclusive and supportive environments conducive to positive community transformation.
