Florence Crittenton Colorado

Support Proposition NN this election season and help FloCrit by expanding public funding avenues for K-12 education, career training, and early childhood care, all without a tax increase.

Childcare is one of the highest barriers to graduation for teen mothers. Supporting Proposition NN could increase state funding for both public high schools, like Florence Crittenton High School, and early childhood education centers, like FloCrit's ECE Center, positively impacting two generations at FloCrit.

We are proud to announce that Florence Crittenton Services is the winner of the Denver Business Journal's 2026 Partners in Philanthropy award!

This is an incredible honor, especially because of how the award was earned. Businesses and fellow nonprofits voted for FloCrit as the top nonprofit organization. This tells us something powerful: our mission, our story, and your work are not only making a difference for the teen parents and children we serve - but they are also resonating with a much broader community of supporters.

Watch FloCrit President & CEO Desta Taye-Channell share the impactful words that won us this award.

What an incredible day at Miles for Moms! Thanks to everyone who showed up, walked with us, cheered us on, donated, fundraised, volunteered, and helped make the day so special.

Together, we raised an incredible $30,000 — and unlocked a $20,000 matching gift! That’s a $50,000 impact for FloCrit teen moms and their children.

A big thank you to our incredible vendors Milly's Bagels and Chupacabra Paletas, our DJ alldaywes, and volunteers from CU Denver Alpha Phi!

Hezekiah Carlstrom, Assistant Director of Student and Family Support Programs, and Maira Magallanes, Lead Housing Specialist, stopped by TheDrop303 Community Corner to share what Florence Crittenton is all about. Listen to the interview https://www.thedrop1047.org/news/community-corner-florence-crittenton-services-!

Being a teen mom is hard enough. Being a teen mom without stable housing, family support, or a clear path forward is something else entirely. Florence Crittenton Services exists for exactly that reason, and the work they're doing in Denver is nothing short of remarkable.
