Enterprise cares deeply about our Colorado communities, especially our residents who have the most vulnerability during environmental, economic and other crisis such as we are experiencing today. As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to unfold quickly, Enterprise Denver is working hand in hand statewide with local housing providers, housing agencies, advocates and philanthropy to respond to our state’s crisis. We will be providing regular updates on resources for residents and housing providers on this page. You can also follow Enterprise’s list of national resources and federal policy response here.
