Commún Denver

Established in 2019, Commún is a nonprofit organization that operates under the fiscal agency of the Barton Institute for Community Action, founded and operating with the knowledge that programs and services must be driven and directed by people who are most impacted by the issue.

Commún helps build community resilience through relationships and programs that center community voice, cultivate a sense of belonging, and realize equity. Answering the call for community gathering space, local food entrepreneurship, and health, we work by:

• Facilitating cross-cultural/generational/socioeconomic interactions and relationships
• Providing community-identified quality services that enrich lives and enhances economic, familial, and cultural growth and development
• Responding to residents needs and uplifting community voice & self-determination.

Commún was founded, and continues to reflect on the knowledge that programs and services must be driven and directed by people who are most impacted by the issue. Commún’s programs are continuously developed and led by community members who are most impacted by the challenges we are seeking to meet. Our current programs are:

• Food Sovereignty
• Mental Health
• Economic Vitality
• Community Organizing
