Supporting Women-Led Households During Crisis: The Colin James Barth Outreach
Today, I sit down with Julie Barth — author, trauma survivor, and founder of The Colin James Barth Outreach (CJB Outreach) — to discuss how tragedy can transform into a mission of hope. As a mother of six and widow who has walked through the pain of loss, abuse, and survival, Ms. Barth shares how she built a nonprofit dedicated to supporting women-led households in crisis.
Ms. Barth opens up about the unimaginable challenges of raising a special-needs daughter with Primordial Dwarfism, navigating medical malpractice, and later losing her husband, Colin, to stage-four pancreatic cancer at just 34 years old. She also shares her battle to rebuild after an emotionally abusive relationship and how she turned pain into purpose through the founding of CJB Outreach — an organization that helps women bridge financial, emotional, and resource gaps before they fall into poverty.
We talk about trusting your intuition, rebuilding identity after loss, and the importance of individualized care in crisis support. Ms. Barth explains how her organization connects women to existing resources while stepping in to fill unmet needs like legal fees, childcare, and remote-work opportunities. We also discuss her book Notes From a Blackberry, a raw and emotional memoir documenting her family’s journey through illness, caregiving, grief, and resilience.
