Public Policy

We advocate for legislation that impacts domestic violence survivors in the Colorado State Legislature and Congress, educating our membership about the policy process, and helping connect them with their legislators.

We also provide input on court rules and state agency policies related to survivors and domestic violence programs, as well as participate on committees and work groups that address a variety of social justice issues.

2022 State Policy Priorities

Our 2022 legislative session report is now available! Read more about the bills we worked on this past spring here.

Nuestro informe de la sesión legislativa de 2022 está disponible! Lea más aquí sobre los proyectos de ley en que trabajamos la primavera pasada.

2022 Federal Policy Priorities

We follow the National Network to End Domestic Violence’s (NNEDV) policy work closely and support their federal level advocacy.

In both October 2021 and January 2022 we participated in actions to encourage the Senate to introduce and pass the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act. The reauthorization was signed into law by President Biden in March 2022.
