COLORADO SPRINGS — Friday has been a great day for a barbecue, but News5 found one that carried some meaning. Creating Connections and other El Paso County groups were at Monument Valley Park hosting a community barbecue.
People in need were there to receive the following:
- free food
- free haircuts
- other resources
"They have helped me out before because I was homeless at one point, and I was struggling really bad, and to have a community like this that shows support, it really does help out and to help a person succeed to show them a better life," said Gabriel Hinojosa with Open DoorWays Counseling.
If you need help with addiction, housing or any other problems, you can visit the following resources:
