The Mission of the Douglas/Elbert Task Force is to endeavor to meet the immediate needs of residents of Douglas and Elbert County who are in financial distress and at risk of becoming homeless, to help them work through troublesome times with dignity.

The Douglas/Elbert Task Force provides assistance with rent, overnight lodging, utilities, gasoline cards, clothing, household items, food and also considers special requests.


To volunteer for the Douglas/Elbert Task Force, please call Kathy D’Amore, Volunteer Coordinator, 303/688-1114 or 303/382-3869 (voice mail).
