Dandelions Rising was created by BIPOC parents to support both our children and fellow parents in navigating the challenges we face as Black, Brown, Indigenous, and People of Color living in northern Colorado. Our program is designed to build young leaders of color, fostering resilience and community connections.

Participation in the fall semester is free, but space is limited. Only one registration is required per family.
