Unlike the City and County Building, free parking is available at all satellite locations. This free, drop-in facility provides child care for children of witnesses, victims, litigants and jurors who don t have or can t afford child care while appearing in the courts. The center is the first of its kind in the Rocky Mountain West. The center provides a welcoming environment with play materials and books and each child is given a book to take home. There are also two separate playgrounds for both infants and young children.
Strict protocol is used to ensure safety, with pickup by parents or authorized persons only.
Mile High Child Care Association, the agency contracted by the Court Child Care Center Board providing the free service, trains the staff. The Denver Warm Welcome Court Child Care Center is located at 290 W, 14th St. in the old Denver Convention and Visitors Bureau building across the street from the City and County Building. Hours are the same as court daytime hours. This program supports the Traffic, Criminal and General Sessions Divisions by referring defendants to agencies where they may perform court ordered community service requirements. The CSO technician monitors the attendance of defendants in their respective work programs.
