“The Tangerine Dream” Party
Rod and Jeff Clough hosted “The Tangerine Dream” party at their home on June 24. With about 150 guests in attendance, it was a great night of food, drinks, and entertainment. In lieu of a host gift, a donation was requested to support Hope House Northern Colorado. Rod shared, “Jeff and I had such fun hosting such a wonderful, giving group of people.”
Hope House stands as a vital resource for teen moms in Northern Colorado, offering a unique array of self-sufficiency programs. Founded in 2003, this organization recognized the need to support young mothers and established its residential center in Arvada. Over the course of a decade, Hope House launched several programs, including GED education, College and Career guidance, parenting and relationship classes, counseling services, and an Early Learning program.
In 2020, the first Hope House affiliate, Hope House Northern Colorado, was established. By employing a menu-style approach, Hope House empowers teen moms to define their goals and select the right components that will help them work towards self-sufficiency.

- Healthy Relationships Classes & Certified Counseling provides free individual counseling with a licensed professional counselor to teen moms and children as needed.
- In-Kind Donations for teen moms who are participating at Hope House have access to donated essentials such as diapers, wipes, food, books, baby formula and more.

As funding and resources become available, Hope House Northern Colorado aims to incorporate the following supplementary services, drawing inspiration from the successful model implemented by Hope House Colorado in Arvada.
