No one else comes forward like the employees at the Department of Energy office. This is the seventh year GJO employees have brightened the season for local youth. I look forward to the Secret Santa program every year. Employees receive the age, gender, and first name of a needy recipient. They purchase new clothing and toys for the children, ranging from infants to 18 years of age.
Some employees also give gift certificates for groceries to the children's families.
The wrapped presents are delivered anonymously by Hilltop employees. B4 Babies and Beyond is a prenatal care access program for uninsured or underinsured women. The Colorado Child Health Plan, a component of B4 Babies, provides access to health care for children through age 17. The Domestic Violence Program provides a safe house for battered women and their children, along with crisis and counseling intervention. The Young Parents Program offers individual and group support to pregnant teens or teenage mothers.
