Evictions
Call the clerks at the courthouse where your eviction hearing is set, or go there in person, weeks before the hearing is actually scheduled. See if they have any self-help, resources, or legal assistance they can offer.
Colorado Housing Connects: https://coloradohousingconnects.org/
"Brothers Redevelopment has teamed up with the Colorado Department of Local Affairs Division of Housing to launch the Housing Counseling Assistance Program. It is a free service to all Coloradans where residents can be connected to local housing resources like financial assistance for rent and mortgages or to be put in touch with legal assistance to prevent a looming eviction. The program can be accessed by calling the state's only centralized housing helpline that Brothers Redevelopment operates, Colorado Housing Connects: 1-844-926-6632"
Community Economic Defense Project: https://cedproject.org/
"CEDP’s scope now encompasses a fully-integrated response to economic hardship and innovative service delivery models. This means our work has expanded far beyond eviction defense as we advocate for rights for mobile home residents, directly prevent homelessness through diversion efforts, offer foreclosure and HOA defense services, take on predatory consumer and medical debt, and defend and provide aid to victims of non-consensual towing."
