COVID-19 UPDATE FOR OUR COMMUNITY

Caring for Youth & Day-to-day Work (Getting Creative!)

• All of our staff are working from home and using video conferencing to stay in touch and on top of work! 
• Intervention Team members are staying connected to as many youth and families as possible via video-conference, phone, and email helping clients to  stay safe and manage trauma and other difficulties as they arise. Our team also offers vital support to gain access to financial, food, and other assistance. 

• Prevention Team members are working on web-based content to push out to youth who would otherwise be at our in-person sessions and providing consultation to other professionals who are working remotely as well.
• Youth Educators are meeting remotely, exchanging a lot of texts, emails, and calls. They are a vital source of ideas and will be helping us create new content to reach others virtually. 

Financial Stability (Holding Strong!)

• As of today, we are not projecting any immediate need to drastically reduce our expenses thanks to years of careful budgeting and financial management. We are proactively working on a budget contingency plan and policies that will allow us to continue our work without significant interruptions.
• We’ve been in touch with most of our major funders (government, private, foundations) and don’t anticipate any interruptions to grant funds at this time but anticipate some losses in other areas. 

Transformations Luncheon 2020 (GOING VIRTUAL!)

• Our annual celebration will be different, but we’re excited about what we can do virtually to connect with each of you and highlight the amazing young people of Project PAVE. This event is a major fundraiser to support our work so we hope many of you will still be able to participate!
• Our team is working on a new experience that allows anyone to join us, no matter how far away you are! Stay tuned for more details.

We recognize that isolation of any type can be incredibly stressful on youth and their families, especially those who are experiencing violence or who are recovering from trauma and now find themselves disconnected from their schools and the resources they provide. PAVE is here and we are continuing to reach as many youth as possible. We are incredibly grateful for your ongoing support to help us provide continued services! 

Please be in touch with any questions or if the PAVE team can be of assistance to you. 

With gratitude,
Adam Evans

Executive Director 

Virtual Transformations Luncheon Update:

Dear Friends,

We have made the difficult but appropriate decision to not host our Transformations Luncheon on May 5th. This decision is made with guidance from the CDC and public health officials in Colorado to cancel large events and also aligns with PAVE’s vision of safe communities.

In the coming days, we will share what we have planned in its place to provide much-needed funds to support our work to end violence in our community and to allow us all to celebrate extraordinary youth changemakers. During these challenging times, we will need your support to continue serving young people, families, and our community.

Today and every day, PAVE remains committed to our mission and to safe, healthy communities. Together, we will get through this!

Stay tuned for more updates coming soon!

With gratitude,
The PAVE Team
