Where There is Light, There is Hope

PorchLight is a Family Justice Center located in Jefferson County, Colorado. We bring together essential services for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, human trafficking, elder & child abuse, all in one place. 

We excitedly opened our doors in 2021, and have seen a steady increase in the need for our services. Our center features on-site childcare, advocacy, virtual court rooms, trauma informed therapy, pet care and more.

No appointment is necessary, we are open from 8:30AM - 4:30PM.

Guest Feedback

"Getting all services in one place is so much more helpful especially when you are trying to leave a dangerous abusive relationship."

"I felt very safe and respected. They helped guide me in the right direction and checked in on me after to make sure I didn’t need any additional support. Wonderful place!"

"Thank you for all your help. Before I found out about you guys, I was feeling hopeless! I didn’t understand how there was no help for someone going thru my struggles before coming here. "
