A resolution was approved by the Denver City Council for an Amendatory Agreement between the City and County of Denver and Roundup Fellowship Inc. This amendment adds $498,077.00 to the existing contract, bringing the new total to $898,077.00. The agreement is for the provision of out-of-home placement services for unaccompanied refugee minor children and youth, ranging from birth to 18 years old (or up to 21 if placed in Denver Human Services (DHS) custody before 18). While increasing the funding, the contract term was reduced by three months, with a new end date of September 30, 2026. Services, provided citywide, include basic 24-hour care, child maintenance (food, shelter, clothing, educational supplies), administrative overhead, case management, and behavioral health services. The program is funded by federal grants from the Unaccompanied Refugee Minor Program and adheres to Colorado Department of Human Services child welfare requirements.
