Introduction
Westwood is one of Denver’s largest neighborhoods with over 17,000 residents, and it is one of our most
vibrant. It is bounded by Alameda Avenue and Mississippi Avenue on the north and south, and Federal Blvd and
Sheridan Blvd on the east and west.
“In Westwood, 79% percent of residents are Latino, 12% are white, 2% Native American, 4% Asian, and
3% is African American. A large proportion of the population is recently arrived, mostly Mexican,
immigrants. More than 23% [2016] of residents do not speak English, and over 46% of births are to
foreign mothers. The average annual wage in Westwood is $47,751 [2016] and that’s $30,988 less
annually than the average income of residents of Denver Metro. Over 87% of children attending
Westwood public schools qualified for free and reduced lunch in 2007.”
Extreme Community Makeover
Westwood appears in nearly all of the City and County of Denver’s equity maps, calling upon city leadership to
ensure the neighborhood receives additional attention toward economic, educational, social and cultural
opportunities. Westwood scores a 2.20 on a scale of 1-5 in the Department of Public Health & Environment’s
Neighborhood Equity Index, meaning it has concerning indicators including low high school graduation rates,
high percentage of families living below the Federal Poverty Line, low access to a fresh food/grocery stores and
low access to parks.
Despite these numbers, the Westwood community is strong, active, engaged and has made Westwood a
destination for delicious food, cultural celebrations, and community and business connectivity. In recent years,
the community has advocated successfully for pedestrian improvements along Morrison Road, a new
recreation center, and improvements to a parks and bicycle network. It is the City’s responsibility to ensure city
owned facilities are also growing and living up their potiential.
Purpose
The purpose of this report was to gather and elevate community opinions and visions of the Westwood
Community Center at 1000 S. Lowell Blvd and how it should continue to serve residents. District 3 staff created a
survey to collect feedback and Councilwoman Jamie Torres offered one-on-one zoom meetings with any
nonprofit, community group, business, or resident who requested one. Our goal was to help inform a future
Request for Proposals (RFP) from the Mayor’s Office and Division of Real Estate to ensure the center continues
to be responsive to residents and community groups in Westwood. We know and appreciate that the Center is
currently utilized by Southwest Improvement Council (SWIC), the Denver Public Library, and through a sub-
contract, Mile High Montessori. We appreciate and value their presence and contributions to the Center, while
also recognizing our responsibility to continually gather resident and stakeholder input about whether a city
owned facility is continuing to meet the neighborhood's needs and desires.
Outreach
This report is a summary of the community outreach completed to date to inform the RFP for the Westwood
Community Center, including online outreach efforts to engage members of the Westwood Community. The
summary addresses important issues and opportunities identified through the various methods in the feedback
process. While developing the outreach strategy, the most effective way to exchange information with community
stakeholders and the public was heavily influenced by the state of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The outreach strategy included relevant social and traditional media, as well as sharing the Westwood Community
Survey through community meetings, non-profits, and registered neighborhood associations.
2
Ultimately, the community engagement provides valuable input from individuals directly affected by the
Westwood Community Center to help create a baseline and recommendations for the future of the center.
The outreach began through a virtual community townhall with the Westwood Neighborhood Association on
January 20, 2021. An online survey was developed and made available on that date and was shared through social
media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Through follow-up meetings and phone calls, residents
were informed that a paper survey can be dropped off to their home and picked up once completed. As a result,
paper surveys accounted for roughly 65% of the responses.
Over the course of seven weeks, without the possibility of in-person meetings, virtual interviews were conducted
through Zoom or Microsoft Teams. Interviews included 16 non-profit organizations and about 60 interviewees,
with backgrounds in education, youth services, food justice, senior care, arts, and culture and more.

Issues Identified in Interviews
▫ Lack of space for services in Westwood
▫ Lack of space for community gatherings in Westwood
▫ Lack of space for events and physical activity in Westwood
▫ Need coordinated roll-out of services delivered between key facility spaces: Westwood Recreation Center,
future Life Span Local location, Westwood Community Center, RISE Westwood
▫ Organizations have been reluctant to use the Community Center because they are charged fees
▫ Library should be expanded to offer more programming, technology, and services
▫ 15 years ago, development of the Community Center was promised – but never came to fruition
▫ Historically, the Center was not welcoming to all in the neighborhood and was a “Gatekeep” location
▫ Small nonprofits in Westwood suffer because they have no physical location to work out of or regular
community space to offer programming or classes. This is what a community center is supposed to provide
▫ Culture of the current building is uncollaborative
▫ Nonprofits are relied upon by the city to meet community needs, but need a reliable location to work out of
in order to be successful
▫ It is an unwelcoming space if no one is sitting in the front entry
▫ Non-English speakers and immigrant community want to feel more welcomed and integrated

Major Themes from Interviews
The following is a summary of the thoughts, comments, and opinions received through the community outreach
processes. These were identified and discussed in various ways, highlighting their importance to the Westwood
community. The major themes are identified below in no particular order.
Arts and Culture
Community members shared a common theme of arts and culture. Residents desire a community center that
reflects the community through various forms of arts and self-expression. This includes music, dance classes,
cultural celebrations, art classes, poetry, spiritual awareness and much more. Many noted the building itself
should reflect the arts and culture of Westwood through the visual components of the building.
Food Access
Numerous residents and stakeholders in the Westwood Community advocated for food access and security. The
community advocated for access to affordable and fresh food in the forms of a community garden, food bank,
food curriculum, delivery and daily hot meals. Currently SWIC provides meals for some seniors and several
respondents indicated they would like this to continue. Respondents mentioned they would like to see a
Re:Vision shipping container housed on site for the hydroponic farm, to connect food access across the
neighborhood and offer technology education and jobs for teens. A collaboration should be cultivated here.
Library
There is overwhelming love for the library, but most respondents argued it needs to be much bigger. They were
not surprised to hear it is the smallest library in the entire Denver Public Library system. Respondents would like
the library to be a place to find a tech assistance center for adults, to make copies and access a computer and
WiFi, to take classes (including English classes), to provide craft and creative spaces like other libraries have and
to find help with homework through services like a tutoring night. One suggestion for library growth was to
include some supplemental library space in other locations in Westwood, like the future Westwood Recreation
Center. For the space at the Community Center, the Library would need its own entrance that is separate from
the entire center which may require capital improvement funding in the future.
Shared Office Space
Several Non-Profits would like to have office space in the Community Center. Current tenants, SWIC would like
to remain. Other Non-Profits argue they are currently serving Westwood, many directed by current residents of
the neighborhood, and they struggle because they do not have sustainable space to operate out of. The
overwhelming desire was to see the Westwood Community Center become a shared space for multiple Non-
Profits. Those expressing a desire for this included: SWIC, D3 Arts, Lifeline, Una Mano Una Esperanza, SW Denver
Coalition
Community Space
Residents shared a common understanding that the Westwood Community Center is the ideal center to host
various organizations and community meetings and events. The lack of community space in Westwood was also
highlighted through various levels of conversation and feedback. Members of the community prioritized and
identified that a community space to host consistent meetings helps build trust amongst service providers and
residents.
Residents and community partners also expressed desire for a hub where various members can utilize the space
through shared offices and storage. The feedback extended beyond the internal space to the outdoor grounds
for more gardens or play areas. The gym came up in several conversations by groups interested in using the
space for dance, Zumba, and theatrical programming and events. The gym already includes a stage that would
4
be perfect for regular creative programming and community events. Most respondents commented that there
should not be fees charged to any group looking for a meeting room, gym time, etc.
“If you’re providing something for free, you should have the space for free.
We need more community spaces.”
Additional community programing respondents said they would like to see development of a bilingual resource
center, hosting legal nights, classes for adults, a regular meeting location for support groups like AA, tutoring
support for school kids, and a growing arts center to teach dance (folkloric) to adults and children.
Welcoming Space for Immigrant and Refugee community and Non-English Speakers
Respondents desire a Community Center that is “actively welcoming.” Actively welcoming means steps are
taken to ensure the space is purposefully language diverse, not by request. Some requested it lead with Spanish
or take a “Spanish First” model.
“If people don’t feel welcome there,
they’re not going to walk in the door for what is provided there.”
There are several national groups that support building welcoming spaces for immigrant communities. Our local
Office of Immigrant & Refugee Affairs can be a conduit to information and resources.
Many residents provided overall impressions about the vision and future of the building. The Westwood
Community Center needs to feel welcoming to all residents and reflect spirit of the community. In order to
compensate the under-utilized space, residents feel that the space needs to meet the diverse needs of the
community without overlapping with existing programs. For residents it is an opportunity to elevate awareness
that the building exists to support the community.
Intergenerational Care:
A number of community stakeholders and residents want to incorporate a space for intergeneration care.
Community members advocated to not elevate one group over another and provide overall care for a family
unit. Intergenerational care ideas included a space of healing, honoring elders, programming between the elders
and youth and much more.
Child Care Services:
Community identified childcare services as a need for families to be able to able to seek assistance,
attend classes, and participate in community meetings.
Senior Services
Seniors in the community identified need a space to engage, mobilize and socialize; to seek out mental
stimulation through activities like technology support, culinary classes and more.
Youth Services
Families identified a need for youth programming to feel connected. Programming services would
include the arts, recreation activities, after school support and relevant programming for age groups
"Remember the diversity we are serving, remember those who are disadvantaged,
make sure they shore that up.”

Survey Responses about Community space
In addition to multiple choice questions about what resources respondents use and barriers to access, there
were several open-ended text questions where respondents could share any ideas about what they would like
to see in this space. Several questions had similar phrasing to draw out themes and give multiple opportunities
to share any and all visions for what this space could be.
Clear themes emerged across all questions, with multiple mentions of classes and resources for adults and
youth, access to technology (computers, internet, classes), a desire to see art and green touches in a large space,
and a focus on a welcoming, inclusive, culturally responsive space that reflects the community it serves. When
asked what services are still needed in the Westwood neighborhood: classes, resources, and activities focused at
youth and seniors has the most mentions. This was closely followed by classes for adults covering ESL, Spanish,
housing counseling, and parenting and support for technology access. Other services appearing in a significant
number of responses included art programming, mental health services, and a library (including expanded
services and hours for the existing library). When asked to narrow down to what one service is most needed, the
themes were consistent. Senior resources received the most mentions, followed by classes for adults, youth
resources, and access to technology.
“Me gustaría que hubiera espacio con suficientes computadoras y acceso a internet para cubrir las
diferentes necesidades escolares o de trabajo de los niños jóvenes y adultos.”
“I would like to see classrooms for the community. Classrooms where we can teach other about
poetry, teach each other home-ed, how to fix tires, a place for book clubs.”
“Clases de inglés y computación y de diferentes cosas. Programas para niños el fin de semana.
Siembro para enseñar como plantar en casa. Préstamo de un espacio para reuniones comunitarias.
Proyectar películas para grupos.”
In response to what they would like to see in a community center, classes, activities, and resources remained
the top theme. Most mentioned a focus on youth, followed by adults and seniors. There were several mentions
of a desire to see a big community space that could be used for events or by community members for classes
and activities. There were also several mentions of wanting the space to be welcoming, respectful, and feel like
a safe space.
“Honoring culture and Westwood history, multi-lingual art, etc.”
We asked what existing places feel welcoming, and what would make the community center feel welcoming.
The most named existing spaces were parks, outdoor areas, and libraries, specifically naming places like the
Corky Gonzales Library. But the most mentioned qualities of spaces that felt welcoming were those with friendly
and welcoming people, and spaces that were culturally reflective and inviting to the community. Respondents
identified a range of things that felt culturally responsive including language access, art, events, and staff from
the neighborhood.
“Seeing my culture there. Seeing other cultures there.
Seeing staff members that are from the community itself.”
Qualities to make the Westwood community center welcoming highlighted diversity, inclusivity, and reflecting
the community being served more so than any single attribute or physical feature. There was desire for a center
serving the whole family in one space, language access, and art. In narrowing down to one most important thing
7
to make the space feel welcoming, a place that is inviting, friendly, nice, and welcomes everyone were the
overwhelming top responses.
“Que tenga un ambiente familiar y que todos sean bienvenidos”
The long form qualitative responses strongly indicated the community desire for a multigenerational community
space that is welcoming, reflects Westwood, and provides both services and space for community groups,
classes, and events. Programming targeting youth and seniors were both called out, but there was also a lot of
interest in classes and supports for adults and whole families. While the community center cannot meet every
need, what respondents are largely asking for is a space where everyone is welcome and has access, and that
understands the culture and history of the community it will be part of.
“Culturally attractive, language accessibility, and open hours that are accessible.”
8Key Takeaways
Responses provided a wide range of ideas for the Westwood Community Center to host services and programs
and to become a shared home to several non-profit organizations. Overall, residents are looking for increased
access to information and resources, a welcoming space for non-English speakers and immigrants generally, a
hub for art, dance, and theater as well as whole-person and whole-family services with workforce development,
programming for youth, adults and elders, housing support, mental health support, and immigration support.
They also desire a more collaborative approach to providing these services, which means organizations who
work together and find ways to weave their programming, outreach, and engagement with one another in mind,
as opposed to working in isolation. This might require some external assistance and the Council Office and City
and County of Denver should support a shared-space or collaboration grant to help ensure multiple tenants are
able to work together to cover a 7 day a week accessible space. A community center and library cannot be a 9-5,
Monday-Friday space, this building is such a valuable commodity in Westwood. Respondents want to see whole-
person, whole-family, and an intergenerational approach grounded in culture and language inclusion. There are
models across the country of multi-functional community centers who offer the variety of programs and services
the community says it needs.
Most organizations interviewed commented on the barrier created by charging fees for use of meeting and
event space for community meeting and events. Recommendations were made including eliminating fees for
Westwood based non-profits or eliminate fees is the meeting or event being held is free to the community. We
know that running a non-profit in Denver is an act of love and dedication to community. Many of the non-profits
interviewed run on very slim budgets and some are volunteer powered. It becomes a time and energy expense
to have to identify new places to meet and hold events on a regular basis and offer something to community
that they can rely upon.
“This building is an asset, let’s fill it with something beautiful.”
Post-Covid Importance
There was resounding and repeated commentary about how important accessible and welcoming community
spaces will be as Denver emerges from the pandemic response. Westwood was a neighborhood hit especially
hard by COVID hospitalizations, deaths and low vaccination rates. It is also a community that relies heavily on
connection and interpersonal contact to build trust and relationships. The community wants access to activities,
creative spaces, mental and physical health offerings, and opportunities to gather. It will be important for any
tenant who manages the Westwood Community Center be actively seeking partnerships with nonprofits and
residents to accomplish this. No single entity can or should do it alone.
Statements for the Future
“Set up the building to be more welcoming – it is not inviting, architecturally.”
“Feels like a principles office – you’re in trouble when you go in.”
“There should always be something going on.”
“It should be welcoming and warm. A place that builds trust.”
“Post-Pandemic, it will be critical to root the community in connection, social-emotional support,
and arts to counteract the isolation.”
“When you’re from Westwood, you feel strongly about the successes and needs of your own neighborhood, you
can touch the community in ways others can’t.”
“This space can be a place where community talks about violence, substance abuse, mental health needs. We
don’t talk about it because we don’t trust and don’t have safe spaces.”
“Historically we have only had things taken from us, never something that is our own.”
