How We Got Here
Agencies at the local, state, and federal level have continued to report an increase in acts of violence against LGBTQ, Jewish and migrant communities. In 2022, Rocky Mountain Equality (RMEQ) began actively engaging in plans to increase community safety and combat hate across the Rocky Mountain region. In October, RMEQ, with the help of the Office of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties, were one of the first two LGBTQ organizations to receive funding from the Center of Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3) to dedicate staff time and resources to this vitally important work.
In 2024, RMEQ was able to continue to provide education and advocacy in partnership in local law enforcement agencies through the Prevention of Identity Based Violence (PIBV) funding form The Colorado Division of Homeland Security & Emergency Management (DHSEM).
