A letter from our CEO: November 2024

Dear friends,
I write to you this week feeling sentiments I know many of you share: anxiety, outrage, maybe even despair. We know progress we’ve made to advance the rights of Coloradans facing poverty is at serious risk of reversal. We know that those who are already vulnerable are going to be even more exposed to harm. Nevertheless, I hope you share another sentiment with me: determination. At CCLP, we are ready for the fight.
This team and this community are already engaged in the struggle for the rights of humanity. We have a clear vision, deep relationships, and the fortitude to withstand the blows coming our way. We will support each other with compassion, lead with love, and speak up with courage. We will employ the many tools we have to address systemic inequities: litigation, legislation, administrative advocacy and research. We will wield these in a way that is nimble, responsive and grounded in partnership with community.
We need you as much as you need us; none of us can do this alone. There are a variety of ways to be a part of what’s to come — some of these are outlined in this month’s Heads Up newsletter. I hope you will take this moment in our history as the opportunity it is: An opportunity to choose community over isolation, to choose action over despondence. There’s a whole lot of work to be done in the months and years ahead. I hope you’ll join us.
With gratitude for this community,
Lydia McCoy
