Civic Engagement & Democracy
We believe democracy is strongest when everyone has a voice in the decisions that shape our communities. We organize with faith and community leaders across Colorado to deepen democratic participation, build community power, and ensure our communities have a meaningful voice in the issues that affect our lives.

COUNTY CLERK & RECORDER MEETINGS
At Together Colorado, we know that strong democracies are built on trust, relationships, and shared responsibility. While County Clerks and Recorders oversee our elections, protecting democracy is a shared effort that includes faith communities, civic organizations, and engaged citizens. We all have a part in building public confidence, expanding participation, and ensuring every eligible voter can safely and freely cast their ballot.
That’s why we’ve created this toolkit. It’s designed to help community leaders connect with their local County Clerks and Recorders, fostering partnerships that strengthen our elections. By meeting with these officials, you’ll gain valuable insight into how elections are run in your community, learn about the challenges and opportunities facing election officials, and discover ways your congregation or organization can be a trusted partner in supporting civic participation.
Download the toolkit today and join us in working together for free, fair, secure, and accessible elections for all.
Join us at an upcoming election protection action!
Upcoming actions are happening in Boulder, Colorado Springs, Larimer, Denver, Pueblo, Weld and across the Southern Front Range.
