Jeffco Prosperity Partners (JPP) is not just an organization; we're a vibrant community that believes in the power of collaboration to break the cycle of generational poverty in Jefferson County.
At JPP, our mission is simple: we're here to empower individuals with the tools they need to succeed. We believe that with quality education, opportunities tailored to their goals, and unwavering community and individual support, anyone can stand on their own two feet.
We take a holistic, multi-generation approach, ensuring that both children and parents have the resources they need to thrive. Our goal is to support parents to achieve self-sufficiency and children to high school diplomas and beyond.
But we're not in this alone. JPP collaborates with an incredible network of community partners to provide programs that cover it all: financial literacy, family well-being, job skill development, health and wellness, education, and building social connections.
Together, we help families navigate this transformative journey. Whether it's providing guidance, support, or a listening ear, we are here to walk alongside children and families every step of the way.

âWithout JPPâs emotional support, encouragement, and tutoring services, I would not be filled with so much joy of accomplishment and success, as well as being a role model for my children... It was an immediate connectionâĤ They never gave up on me.â - LONA, JPP Participant 2015-21Â
