SOS Camps Enable Crime & Addiction

The SOS camps, run by Colorado Village Collaborative, look great on paper but they are not what they seem. Duane Peterson is a longtime Colorado resident who attended CU Boulder and is sober with no criminal record, nor has he ever been a drug user or diagnosed for a mental health condition. “These factors not only made him an outcast among the BVC residents, but also made him the target of stalking, death threats, and racial attacks - which ultimately forced him to move out for the sake of self-preservation.”

There have been numerous accounts of negligence on the part of Colorado Village Collaborative. Duane estimates he made over 50 complaints with the Denver Police Department and “Nothing was ever done”.

Dawn McNulty and the other Citizens for a Safe and Clean Denver are staunchly against SOS spaces. We intend to address and remove the glaring oversights and extreme safety hazards to neighborhoods populated by families with children.
