What Colorado Jobs With Justice Inc does
Mission
Advance workers rights & social justice through building sustained relationships and taking direct action to create concrete change in the lives of working families
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Wage theft: at the core of our denvers workers rights program is a commitment to empowering workers through education and advocacy. We recognize that knowledge is a powerful tool in the fight for worker rights. Our approach is designed to create a multiplier effect: when one worker is informed about their rights, they typically share this knowledge with six others, creating a ripple effect of empowerment. Our workshops and clinics are more than just informational sessions; they are environments where workers learn to advocate for themselves and others, turning knowledge into action.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $127k to $239k (+89%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 91% · 2022 39% · 2023 93% · 2024 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

90% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $670k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
