The Mending Circle Is Nearing Its Final Chapter
Over the past months, the Mending Circle has brought together caring individuals with a shared purpose: creating handmade warmth for neighbors experiencing homelessness. Although we've worked hard and created many beautiful items, the growing need this winter means there is still more to do.
We are now welcoming donations of warm clothing and winter essentials to help ensure our community members have the support they need during the colder months ahead.
If you would like to donate, please contact Dara to coordinate a convenient drop-off or pick-up. Donations will be accepted until Saturday, November 7th.
Together, we can make a meaningful difference. Thank you for your kindness and support.

Fostering positive experiences throughout the healing journey is essential for sustaining motivation and building resilience. At Advocates for Recovery Colorado, we believe that creating supportive environments and meaningful connections enhances every step of recovery.

Embracing a positive perspective not only improves emotional well-being but also strengthens the foundation for a lasting, healthy recovery.
