Taking the first step towards empowerment.

A Place to Heal

CPLC De Colores provides a safe, secure place for families to heal from the traumatizing effects of domestic violence, sexual violence, and human trafficking. Shelter and community-based services meet survivors where they are to help them discover their strengths and regain their freedom.

The De Colores Shelter provides emergency housing, case management, legal and housing support, support groups, transportation, youth services, housing and employment support, and referrals to other resources. We offer nurturing spaces for survivors and their families to heal, including a meditation room, a garden, and a special area for youth activities.

The Community-Based program serves those who are not ready to move into shelter or who are transitioning out of a shelter program with crisis intervention, safety planning, legal and housing support, support groups, art classes to promote healing, youth programs, financial empowerment programming, and transitional and rapid rehousing programs.

Pet Program

De Colores provides a safe haven for survivors and their pets. At De Colores, pets have access to: shelter, housing, grooming, vet care, food, and pet supplies.

How You Can Help

Families often arrive at De Colores with little but the clothes on their backs. Donations of basic household supplies and toiletries help provide for families’ basic needs so they can focus on healing. Visit our Amazon Charity Wish List to see our current needs and make a donation

Furniture donations are accepted in partnership with Furnishing Dignity. Furniture is given to shelter residents as they exit the shelter and begin life in a new home. To schedule a furniture pickup, visit furnishingdignity.org/in-kind-donation and enter “CPLC De Colores” for the field “How did you hear about Furnishing Dignity.”

Your gift of any amount provides counseling, support, housing, and healing for survivors to heal and live a life free from violence. Donations to CPLC De Colores are eligible for the Arizona QCO tax credit.
