Welcome to SENSE Colorado!

We have simplified our name to make our services easier to find, but our mission remains exactly the same. Formerly known as the Colorado Division for the Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and DeafBlind, SENSE stands for Services, Education, Navigation, Support, and Empowerment. While our brand is new and accessible, our staff and core programs remain completely unchanged.
