Federal aid workers in Denver, once on the frontlines of global relief, are now gathering weekly to support each other after sudden layoffs gutted agencies like USAID. These professionals—many with advanced degrees—have seen their careers upended, forced to dip into savings, delay healthcare, and navigate a maze of unemployment claims. The Tuesday Group at the Posner Center has become a lifeline, offering job-hunting tips, emotional support, and even lobbying for rent and childcare help. As government contracts vanish and AI-driven hiring ramps up, the community is left asking: how do we rebuild when the helpers themselves need help? #Safety #Denver #USAID
