Hosting a migrant family in your home is now as simple as a phone call (Denver, CO)

An organization in Denver is working to get migrants off the streets and into homes of host families across Colorado, and a new partnership is making that task easier than ever before.

Hope Has No Borders began pairing migrant workers and their families with hosts in Colorado in late 2023. Now, with help from the United Way, getting paired up is a simple phone call away by dialing 211.

Erin Lennon is one of the many hosts the organization has paired with migrants. She didn’t realize the scope of Denver’s migrant crisis until talking with a friend late last year.

“Wow this is not just a little problem, this is a big problem,” she remembers thinking.

A single mom with a spare bedroom in the house, she felt a call to help.

“Hope Has No Borders is providing financial stipends that are negotiated sort of on the need of the host,” says Kettering.

Anyone interested in hosting a migrant family can dial 211. You’ll be asked a few questions, like how long you’re able to host someone and what kind of space you can provide.

They should also ask: "Have you gotten your affairs in order?"

Let me guess: The “care package” given to the so-called “migrant family” includes the nice, sharp machete they can eventually use on you?

/yes, sarc.

Will a single phone call get the illegals out of your house after they trash the place, steal from you, and maybe assault members of your family?

Somehow I doubt it.

Please, Colorado voters please rejoin the United States and vote your current government leaders OUT. If you are harboring Illegal Aliens, turn them over to the Border Patrol.

Something like this, once optional, will inevitably over time become mandatory. “Since it’s such a good idea. You want to help, don’t you?”

“Single mom found dead in her apartment by her daughter returning from school. An official who preferred not to be named stated the mom had been sexually assaulted and died from blunt force trauma.

The family had recently hosted two newcomers from Venezuela. They have not returned to the apartment and appear to have left with their few belongings.”

1. Unhosting a migrant family that have made themselves unwelcome will not be as easy as a phone call.

2. Next step is the government calling you to tell you that your home has been drafted to host illegals in a Dr. Zhivago style.

And then when they decide not to leave, you’ll wind up getting kicked out of your own house.

From the article:
‘“We cooked meals together, we cleaned the house together, you know, we just were a community with each other,” Lennon said.”’

Sounds like free labor. LOL!

“Hi, 211? I’d like for my neighbor to host a family- they’re big illegal immigration supporters.”

-or-

“Hi, I live at [liberal neighbors address]. I’d like to host some ‘migrants’”

I bet hilarity ensues [I love it when hilarity ensues]

I want to charge them exurbanite amount of rent. Is this step mentioned in the House-a-Homeless plan as it has been submitted?
