  Ms. PETTERSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Wheat Ridge 
Community and Family Coalition for Education for receiving the Wheat 
Ridge Business Association's 2023 City Council Partnership Award.
  The award is given to an organization in the Wheat Ridge community 
that has demonstrated dedication, service, and leadership to the local 
area. The members of this organization selflessly volunteer their time, 
even in the face of challenging circumstances, to nurture and uplift 
young people growing up in Wheat Ridge. Initially formed as a response 
to the impact of the pandemic on Wheat Ridge families, the coalition 
has continued to support and address the needs of the community, 
ensuring that every family has the safety and support they need to 
navigate uncertain times.
  Congratulations to the Wheat Ridge Community and Family Coalition for 
Education on the accomplishments that led to this prestigious award. We 
are grateful for their contributions to the Wheat Ridge community.
