About Us

DMCI studied how the Collective Impact Framework was being utilized across the country, taking note of how it could apply in Denver’s local context, and brought their operations to scale thanks to generous start-up funding and fiscal sponsorship from Bloomberg Philanthropies and The Civic Canopy. DMCI’s first major initiative was to form the Park Hill Collective Impact, a 501c3 that works to unite and sustain Denver’s Northeast Park Hill community.

Today, DMCI works to center and grow community power and agency through facilitated conversations, qualitative data analysis, shared leadership models, and collective action. For over a decade, our work has positively impacted communities across Denver, helping historically oppressed neighborhoods and groups gain social, political, environmental, and economic equity.
