The mission of UWMC is to meet human service needs through excellent stewardship of resources entrusted by the community. We strive to create a community of philanthropists, identify current and emerging human service needs in our community, and support effective agencies to fully meet those needs.
CASA

Our volunteers not only bring positive change to the lives of children, but also provide consistency in children’s lives protecting their right to be treated with dignity and respect that every child deserves. Our mission is to provide a voice in court for victims of child abuse and neglect.
Western Slope Center for Children
