Those funds used to
support families and
individuals who are
in financial
distress and at risk
of becoming
homeless.
The
Douglas/Elbert Task
Force helps them
work through
troublesome times
with dignity by
providing essential
services such as
food, clothing and
household items,
utilities, rent,
information/referrals
and much more.
Shoppers will find
that Treasures
offers a whole new
experience from the
old store. The
bright, expansive
retail space allows
for more room for
those gently used
items and makes it
easier to shop.
Friendly volunteers
greet and assist
shoppers as they
find their many
Treasures on Park
Street. There are
several dressing
rooms to try on
their fabulous
finds. The home
goods, art work,
books and media
areas that includes
previously viewed
videos and DVD’s
have been expanded
as well.
One
of the nicest
aspects of our new
building is the
atmosphere in the
Client Services
waiting area. We’ve
gone from a tiny
reception area that
was incredibly
crowded and noisy
- it was not at all
unusual to have
clients seated in
folding chairs in
two hallways and our
conference room, and
to step over
children who were
lying on the floor
- to an airy, quiet
space with room for
kids to play safely.
People who are in
crisis operate under
incredible stress.
Having a calm, warm,
quiet place to come,
and being greeted
and made welcome by
a smiling volunteer
immediately diffuses
some of that
stress. Having the
opportunity to be
listened to and
to be heard by
staff who not only
understand but who
can often make a
difference that day
is an incredible
relief, particularly
for clients with
children. We
go through many,
many boxes of
tissues, and hugs
are given liberally
at the Task Force.
Treasures on Park
Street is located
approximately
one-half mile north
of the intersection
of Wolfensberger and
Park Street in
Castle Rock.
Donations are
accepted from 9 to 3
Monday through
Saturday and the
Treasures retail
store is open for
business from 9 to 4
Monday through
Saturday.
