Colorado nonprofits work to ward off federal threats

Some organizations in Colorado, responding to the Trump administration’s crackdowns on both nonprofit groups and immigrants, are hiring lawyers, limiting data collection and locking their doors to ward off federal threats to them or the people they serve.

According to The Denver Post, one statewide nonprofit that works with the immigrant community considered giving disposable phones to its staff members, who now communicate largely on encrypted messaging apps, while a prominent foundation has financed legal training sessions for nonprofit groups on “how to stay legal and stay in compliance.”
