CCO Board of Directors
Do you have interest in working with CCO founders to end homelessness in Durango, La Plata County, CO? We have worked toward addressing many gaps in services since January 2017 for people in our community who are trying to leave homelessness. Our work during COVID crisis requires case management by our executive director and the volunteers who have helped in various areas of services we provide. Please contact us if you would like to meet our founders to discuss your interest in working with us toward ending homelessness -- if not for all, for as many as we can assist.
