Empowering children to share their stories through compassionate advocacy, healing services, and prevention education.

Currently, Life Stories has 13 members of the Board of Directors, employs 12 staff members, and has 80 active volunteers in the CASA Program. Additionally, they work closely with a Multi-Disciplinary Team made up of local law enforcement agencies, the 19th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, Weld County Department of Human Services, mental health providers, and a medical provider. Together, they work to efficiently investigate and prosecute criminal cases of child abuse and neglect and provide advocacy & support for victims and their non-offending family members.

They went through a rebranding process in 2016 to better unite their programs. In January 2017, they introduced their new name, Life Stories: Child and Family Advocacy. They honor and value the stories that are shared in the CAC and with CASA volunteers and supervisors. By giving children a safe space to tell their story and the resources to overcome the trauma they faced, they hope all victims will become survivors and have a better future – in safe, permanent homes free from abuse and neglect.
