The Initiative Colorado is a non-profit organization based in Denver, Colorado. The organization has seven employees and generates approximately $2.5 million in annual revenue. The Initiative champions the rights and well-being of individuals with disabilities, advocating for justice and creating a resilient, inclusive community. They work to address various forms of abuse and provide support to those affected. Founded in 1985, The Initiative began as 'HOW,' Handicapped Organized Women, empowering women with disabilities. Recognizing the need for better support systems, the organization evolved into the 'Domestic Violence Initiative for Women with Disabilities' before adopting its current name in 2017 to encompass a broader range of genders and forms of abuse.
