Larimer County reports 73 warrant cases cleared at recent event, pairs clearance with resource fair
Summary
Larimer County staff said their April 20, 2026 warrant clearance event resolved about 73 warrants and paired the clinic with a community resource fair and peer navigators to connect attendees with health and social services.
At a May 27 work session, Larimer County presented an update on its warrant clearance program and a recent resource fair that accompanied the April 20, 2026 event. Emily Humphrey of Community Justice Alternatives said about 73 warrants were resolved and 43 defendants attended in person; 15 people (with 22 warrants) were turned away because they were ineligible due to multiple-jurisdiction warrants or other exclusion criteria.
Humphrey emphasized that the resource fair element increased connection to services. SummitStone Health Partners, UC Health and several nonprofits including Servants Heart participated, and the county used peer navigators to welcome and encourage people to access services. Humphrey said peer navigators from groups such as Yarao Collective and Milestone Community Wellness met people as they arrived and helped reduce barriers to participation.
County staff framed the clearance events as targeted assistance for resolving low-level warrants that can hinder housing, employment and rehabilitation. Representatives said the events have produced repeat positive outcomes for attendees, including one participant who traveled from Wyoming to resolve an old DUI and another who obtained diversion while enrolled in competency treatment.
Presenters said the clearance events are part of broader community-justice work that also includes community garden projects and alternative-sentencing opportunities. Commissioners asked for additional operational and budget details, which staff agreed to provide offline.
