About Us
In 2002, the Community of
Caring Foundation, a Colorado tax exempt nonprofit incorporated in 1998,
opened the doors of the Aspen Mine Center to provide a “one-stop resource
shop” for residents of southern Teller County and the surrounding area.
The AMC now houses some two dozen nonprofit service organizations, either
full or part time, along with a number of others who pop in from time to
time, often on the Commodities Day, the last Friday of each month, when
the place is really jumping with people and activities. Its own talented and dedicated staff includes Community of Caring founder and chairman of the board Mary Bielz, Community of Caring executive director Ted Borden, Aspen Mine Center coordinator Kathy Hansen, executive assistant Veldean Petri and employment specialist/client services assistant Hank Nelson. A major presence in the Aspen Mine Center is the Teller County Department of Social Services. The main floor was remodeled recently to accommodate two social services offices and a small conference room and a reception area. The front reception area will be staffed by Aspen Mine Center personnel.
Upstairs in the Aspen Mine Center is the large classroom, the Pikes Peak Workforce Center facility, Early Head Start and the Aspen Mine Senior Club. |
