Community Referrals
At Campus Connections, we work with local groups to help kids in our community. When you refer a young person to our program, you give them chances to learn, grow, and get support from mentors. Together, we can help youth succeed, build strong connections, and make a positive difference in their lives.

Refer a Youth
网曝吃瓜 Campus Connections welcomes referrals for youth ages 11–18 who live in Weld County. Many referrals come from community partners, like the Juvenile Court, District Attorney’s Office, Probation, and school staff such as counselors and resource officers.
Families can also refer youth directly. Many youth return to Campus Connections and even bring their siblings, even if it’s not required.
Referrals are accepted anytime. We try to enroll all youth as space allows. We aim for youth to start during the first week of each session (fall or spring), but youth can join anytime during the 12-week session if spots are available.

Referral Process
After we get the referral form, someone from the Campus Connections team will call to set up an intake meeting with the youth and their parent(s) or guardian(s). After this first meeting, the youth will be registered for Campus Connections. If you have questions or want more information, you can contact the Campus Connections Office.
