The Colorado Anti-Violence Program is looking for new volunteers to help us build community and fight for safety and justice in Colorado. At our CAVP Volunteer Trainings, participants learn about the history and values of CAVP and gain knowledge about the ways cycles of violence and oppression impact LGBTQ people. Training topics include transgender 101, breaking down power and oppression, and trends in violence experienced by LGBTQ communities. Additional training topics are covered in the Hotline Advocate, Train the Trainer, and Branching Seedz of Resistance youth organizing project. 

 

Rainbow Warriors Film Launched

"We invite our friends, family and community to witness an intimate and fierce collective testimony of young survivors of suicide, sharing their personal paths towards healing. We intend for this film to be the beginning of a larger media platform where young people are able to upload, share, and discover each other's real lives accounts, struggle and tools of survival for other young LGBTQ warriors," stated Mimi Madrid, co-director of Rainbow Warriors. 

Branching Seedz of Resistance premiered Rainbow Warriors, their latest film project, on April 24th at Su Teatro. Watch a sneak preview NOW. Rainbow Warriors is a short documentary film created by and for young queer and Two Spirit people of color to portray the resiliency our communities in responding to the emotional and physical effects of suicide.
