Our Work
We support families on their path to self-sufficiency.
Jeffco Prosperity Partners works together with families, local communities, and partners to help families achieve economic stability. Our advocacy efforts focus on policy reform to remove systemic barriers preventing low-income and historically underserved families from accessing quality education, health care, and livable wage employment opportunities.
Generational Poverty
Poverty, much like wealth, often persists across generations, creating significant challenges for families to break free from its cycle and achieve prosperity.
Two-Generation Approach
Our family-centered framework helps to immediately identify whole families’ needs and goals to maximizes long-term impact for families and communities.
Self-Sufficiency
Over the last twenty-one years, the Self-Sufficiency Standard has increased by 124%, on average, for all Colorado counties, or an average of 5.9% per year.
JPP Program
At the forefront of our efforts to combat poverty is our JPP program. Through JPP, we bring together the strength and support of the community, families, and project partners to collaboratively seek and implement effective solutions.
The purpose of this program is to move low-income families to economic self-sufficiency by improving health and well-being, building economic stability, promoting education and post-secondary education, and advancing employment.
We fund and support the JPP program to foster innovations that contribute to a thriving community.
