The Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition (CIRC) is a statewide alliance of immigrant, faith, labor, youth, community and ally organizations founded in 2002 to defend and advance justice for all immigrants and refugees in Colorado and the United States.
CIRC achieves this mission through capacity building for member organizations, broad-based strategic alliances, civic participation, rapid response to raids and repression, and winning public policies that improve the lives of immigrants.
CPER Funded Project
CIRC's CPER funded work includes:
- Building a broader, more diverse membership base for the Higher Education Access Alliance (HEAA), which seeks to increase higher education opportunities for all Colorado students, regardless of immigration or economic status;
- Training and increasing capacity of CIRC member organizations and partners statewide to directly engage in HEAA activities; and
- Engaging additional allies in HEAA work.
