Why join us

Why people choose CEDP

Mission-driven work

Your work directly prevents eviction, defends families, and changes laws. Not metrics on a dashboard — real impact you can see.

Unprecedented growth

From 3 volunteers in 2020 to ~200 in 2024. A startup pace with nonprofit purpose. Build something that didn't exist before.

Colorado-based

4 offices: Denver, Colorado Springs, Durango, Fort Morgan. Hybrid options available. Serve your own community.

Systemic change

We don't just serve clients — we pass laws. The Towing Bill of Rights, expanded renters' protections, and the $1M Wyatts settlement all started here.

What it's like here

CEDP was built by people who refused to accept that eviction was inevitable. That urgency is in everything we do.
