On January 25th Sleep Tight Colorado Turned Three! It still feels like yesterday that I had the idea to start Sleep Tight Colorado (STC). The support of my familyand friends inspired me to spring into action. Within a few months STC was up and running with an informative and interactive website, a Facebook page with a growing number of followers and “likes,” and most importantly, 501(C)3 status.
