Background Information:

On October 7, 2019, the Archdiocese of Denver, Colorado (the “Archdiocese”) announced the formation of the Independent Reconciliation and Reparations Program (Colorado IRRP) to compensate victims of clergy sexual abuse of minors by clergy of the state of Colorado.

While run by the Archdiocese of Denver, the Colorado IRRP extends to all dioceses in Colorado: The Diocese of Pueblo, the Diocese of Colorado Springs, and the Archdiocese of Denver.

The Diocese has retained an Independent Oversight Committee (“IOC”) to administer the IRRP. Memebers of the IOC include Senator Hank Brown, Honorable Jeanne Smith, Judge David Crockenberg, Nancy Feldman, and Laura Morales.

The key features of the Colorado IRRP are as follows:

• The Colorado IRRP is purely voluntary; no individual is required to participate in the Program.
• To register, please provide you name, contact information, and a summary description of the nature of the claim, including the dates and location of the abuse and name of the perpetrator. Or simply contact us.
• New complaints of abuse received through the Colorado IRRP must be reported to the local office of the District Attorney and to the Archdiocese of Denver for review. This is extremely complicated and daunting.

Let Merson Law take care of this task for you

• Individuals who previously submitted a complaint of sexual abuse of minors to the Archdiocese will have an opportunity to seek compensation from the IRRP.

• Individuals who have not previously filed a complaint with the Diocese may register to participate in the Program on or before November 30, 2019.

• Eligible claims will be paid within two weeks from the time that a submitted claim is deemed eligible, compensation is determined and a Release is received by the Administrators.

• The deadline to register a new allegation is November 30, 2019.

• Survivors who claimed abuse by lay teachers or members of religious orders will not receive compensation from the Denver fund. It is limited to individuals abused by priests or deacons.

Get the help that you need in maximizing your compensation before the end of the Colorado IRRP.
