Your generous gift helps cover funding shortfalls while contributing to a culture of inclusion and empowering people with disabilities to live life on their own terms.
“My family could not have made it through this last year without the support and care of Community Connections. At a time when we had no idea of what to do, they stepped in and helped us make a plan. With their help, our son is now meeting his goals and surpassing them. We feel much more hopeful for his future.”
“Community Connections helped me find balance as a parent, so I can care for my daughter and still fill my own cup.”
“My case manager has helped me to live independently. She checks on me to make sure things are going well. I feel so fortunate to have such a knowledgeable, caring case worker. She goes above and beyond.”
Founded in 1985, Community Connections is a non-profit organization dedicated to connecting people with disabilities, developmental delays, and complex needs to the resources they choose to lead healthy and fulfilling lives. We envision a world where all people fully belong, contribute and thrive.
As the state designated Case Management Agency in Southwest Colorado, Community Connections provides person-centered services to people of all ages with intellectual, developmental, and other disabilities and their families across a five-county region (Archuleta, Dolores, La Plata, Montezuma and San Juan counties). We serve approximately 900 people annually through three primary programs:
• Case Management: Helps people with disabilities access long term care Medicaid benefits, connect to community resources, choose providers, manage care plans, respond to crises, and mediate provider communication.
• Early Intervention: Provides supports and services to children 0 - 3 years old who need help reaching developmental milestones like crawling or speaking, or have other developmental needs.
• Family Support Services: Supports and strengthens families caring for a loved one with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the home.
• Southwest Colorado Cares: Launching in 2026, this community care hub will connect residents to health, housing, and social service resources through one coordinated system.
These programs provide vital support to keep people with disabilities healthy and thriving within their communities.
