Expert-Led Presentations

Our advocates provide engaging presentations that combine practical information with real-world experience. Programs focus on violence prevention, victim advocacy, community resources, bystander awareness, and strategies for creating safer schools, workplaces, and communities.

Participants leave with practical knowledge they can immediately apply in their professional and personal lives.

Building Strong Community Partnerships

Preventing violence requires a community-wide effort. Latimer House partners with organizations throughout Mesa, Montrose, Delta, and Ouray counties to expand education, strengthen referral networks, and improve access to services for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, family abuse, and human trafficking.

Together, we can build a safer, more informed, and more compassionate community.
