About this directory. Compiled from Violence Free Colorado's statewide network, DomesticShelters.org, WomensLaw.org, the CDPS victim-resource list, and each program's own site — cross-checked July 2026. Programs occasionally change numbers or names; if a line fails, the National Hotline above will route you. Corrections welcome: charles@longmont.law.
The legal side, handled. Protection orders, divorce or custody tangled up with abuse, breaking a lease safely, criminal charges — a no-charge 20-minute call with Charles is a safe, confidential place to sort out your options. We defend the wrongly accused, too.
