🏈 Community, connection, and CU football! 💛🖤

SPAN had a great time at the CU Luncheon, connecting with community partners, supporters, local leaders, and familiar faces—and meeting some new ones along the way!

There’s already plenty of excitement building around another season of Colorado Buffaloes Football and Coach Prime. But for SPAN, being part of the CU community is about more than football. It’s about coming together to build a community where everyone feels safe, supported, and respected.

💜 And this fall, we’re excited to bring that message to the conversation as October marks Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM).

CU will host a special DVAM Football Game on Saturday, October 31, when the Buffs take on Kansas State!

Come cheer on CU, show your support for survivors, and stop by the SPAN table to say hello. You might even leave with some SPAN swag. 😉

🏈 CU vs. Kansas State
📅 Saturday, October 31 | Kickoff TBA
💜 Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Football brings us together. Let’s use that connection to build a community free from domestic violence.

We hope to see you there!

What happens when violence is treated like a joke?

A recent golf ad showing a man shoving a woman to the ground sparked a larger conversation about how we see and talk about violence against women.

That conversation matters.

In Boulder County, about 1,000 of the 8,000 cases handled by the District Attorney’s Office each year are domestic-violence-related. Behind every case is a person—and often a family—navigating fear, safety and difficult decisions.

Awareness starts conversations. Conversations can change how we recognize violence, respond to it and support survivors.

Let’s keep the conversation going.

💜 Thank you, Community Foundation Boulder County for awarding SPAN a Community Trust Grant to support the vital services survivors and their families rely on!

Safety looks like a 2 a.m. hotline call answered. A shelter bed for a mom, her kids, and their beloved pet. A counselor listening and helping someone find hope and begin healing. A support group. An advocate walking someone through a protection order. A classroom conversation about healthy relationships.

For more than four decades, SPAN has been a vital part of our community’s safety net. This support means that when someone reaches out for help, SPAN is there. 💜

🌟 National Night Out at San Juan del Centro! 🌟

SPAN was honored to be part of this amazing community gathering, celebrating National Night Out!, a police-community partnership focused on building connection, trust, and safer neighborhoods.

It was a fun evening filled with food, games, music, and meaningful conversations alongside the Boulder Police Department local leaders, and fellow community organizations. SPAN and other organizations were there to connect neighbors with resources and support, because we believe strong relationships and accessible resources help create safer, stronger communities.

Thank you to San Juan del Centro for inviting SPAN to be part of such a wonderful evening and to everyone who came out to connect, celebrate, and build community with us! 💜
