REGIONS
Our Support Network is Growing
Successful energy programs must reflect the voices of the communities they aim to serve. That’s why we work with Community Action Partners (CAPs) in key regions across Colorado.
CAPs are trusted community members who listen to local experiences with energy programs, including:
- Billing assistance
- Weatherization upgrades
- Solar incentives, and
- Rebates for electric vehicles and wildfire mitigation.
CAPs do not enroll individuals in these programs. Instead, they gather feedback that helps improve how these offerings show up in real people’s lives.
If you live in one of the regions below, your insights can help us make energy programs fairer, more accessible, and responsive. Reach out to our CAPs to share your experience.
Denver
Denver is Colorado’s capital and most populous city, with communities that reflect a broad range of histories, housing types, and energy needs. From renters in multifamily buildings to homeowners in older housing, residents experience energy programs in different ways. Denver CAPs listen to these varied experiences to help identify what’s working — and where barriers remain.
Aurora
Aurora spans three counties and is one of the most culturally diverse cities in the state. It is home to immigrant and refugee communities, multigenerational families, and a broad spectrum of income levels and housing types. CAPs in Aurora focus on how accessible energy programs feel across languages, cultures, and income levels.
Boulder County
Boulder County blends a high cost, innovation driven urban core with foothill towns and unincorporated areas still recovering from climate driven disasters. Residents experience stark disparities, with older adults, immigrants, and low-income families navigating affordability challenges amid some of the state’s strongest economic engines. Boulder County CAPs help surface these disparities and ensure they inform program improvements.
Jefferson County
Located along the Front Range and spanning 774 square miles, Jefferson County is the fourth-most populous county in Colorado. It comprises dense suburban corridors to mountain communities where aging infrastructure, wildfire risk, and limited transit shape daily life. The county’s diverse population includes long-established families, older adults aging in place, and communities facing rising costs despite strong regional job markets. CAPs help bring these perspectives forward to strengthen local relevance.
Larimer County
Larimer County is located at the northern edge of Colorado’s Front Range. The county spans fast‑growing cities alongside vast rural and mountain communities that face increasing wildfire risk, housing, and transportation pressures. Its mix of university life, agricultural roots, and aging rural populations create complex needs across health access, mobility, and economic stability. CAPs surface insights that reflect this wide range of lived experiences.
San Luis Valley
Located in southern Colorado, the San Luis Valley is a high-altitude rural region with deep cultural roots and long-standing local leadership. Residents’ experiences highlight the importance of ensuring rural communities are not left out of statewide energy solutions. CAPs in the Valley gather insights that reflect the realities of distance, infrastructure, and long-term community resilience.
