Welcome to Safe Families for Children (SFFC) of Northern Colorado!

Launched in 2021, the Northern Colorado chapter began with a simple but powerful desire: to serve families in the Northern Colorado Community who are facing crisis and social isolation. We are part of a national movement of volunteers who open their hearts and homes to walk alongside families in crisis.  We offer temporary care for children, and family support creating a safety net for families before situations escalate to abuse, neglect, or involvement with the foster care system.

At the heart of our work is a commitment to empowering the local faith community to live out the biblical call to hospitality. We support church-based leadership teams in identifying, training, and equipping volunteers to temporarily host children, and support parents giving parents the breathing room they need to regain stability and move forward.

Together, we can stop the flow of children into foster care—by stepping in early, offering connection, compassion, and community when it’s needed most—ultimately keeping children safe and families together.
