Financial data
Colorado Artists in Recovery
Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.

Executive Director
Darin Valdez
Darin Valdez is a native of Colorado. His sobriety date is Jan 2, 2014. After spending over 7 years of his life homeless on the streets of Denver addicted to meth, he was blessed with the gift of sobriety. After graduating treatment at Sobriety House here in Denver, he became a house manager and Certified Addictions Counselor at the same treatment center that helped him get sober. With the support of a local non-profit, CrossPurpose, he was able to develop his dream of creating a community of supportive artists in recovery. He began to create workshops that focused on tying creativity to recovery. He has since received support from The Caring for Denver Foundation and partnered with many recovery programs throughout the city to continue offering hope through the creative process. He is an inspirational advocate for finding alternative pathways to freedom from homelessness and addiction. See more of his story at https://www.coloradoartistsinrecovery.org/darin-s-story-1
