Another prevalent Evangelical presence in Colorado Springs comes from a family-oriented foundation, known as Focus on the Family.
Focus on the Family acts as a ministry, accepting and working solely based on donation. They manufacture videos, CD's, and books to spread their core values. They work all over the country, but they're headquartered in a largely religious region of Northern Colorado Springs. They target all walks of life, but their characters within their videos and tapes reflect a tendency toward children.

Los Angeles Times posted a story in 2009 regarding James Dobson, the Conservative Evangelical leader who founded Focus on the Family. He and his wife resigned from their roles, leaving a trail of suspicion behind. He is famous for his political viewpoints despite his claim to keep his political opinions separate from his nonprofit organization.
