- Adam Paul, Former Lakewood Mayor

Lakewood Connects was an invaluable partner to me as a school building leader and to our staff. They came to our school with open hands and open hearts and selflessly met the emotional and tangible needs of our team. They understand the transformative power of relationships in serving those who serve our children.

- Jim McKenney, Jeffco Public Schools

Lakewood Connects has been a vital partner to our church and our engagement in the community. Reg has inspired and influenced a number of connections to a variety of nonprofits, schools, and government leaders. Through partnership with Reg, we have increased the opportunity to grow our church ministry and actively respond to needs in our neighborhood. Reg has also been a huge support and encouragement to me personally as he cheers me on in ministry. His personal experience, relational networks, and his contagious visionary enthusiasm make him a valuable resource for our church. Thank you Reg and Lakewood Connects.

- Nick von Stein, Pastor of Grace Covenant Church

Lakewood Connects is a key component in our mission to love and serve the people of the Green Mountain community and the City of Lakewood. Reg Cox is the conduit to collaborative relationships between the faith community, city leadership, non-profits, county agencies and Jeffco Schools. Lakewood Connects opened the door for Faith Mountain to tutor students, invest in school improvement projects, feed the hungry, bless hundreds of low income families at Christmas and make a real difference in the real lives of our real neighbors. We are a stronger and more vibrant community because of the hard work done by Lakewood Connects. We're better together. Lakewood Connects keeps us together.

- Pat Barnes, Founding Pastor of Faith Mountain

Reg is the great connector! His knowledge of the needs in the community and ability to bring people from various areas and industries to the table make him an invaluable asset for Lakewood and Jefferson County.
