Housing Services in Denver
Housing Services at WellPower
At WellPower, we understand it can be difficult to get well -- to sustain a sense of personal dignity and belonging in the community -- without the stability of a home. That is why the provision of affordable and supported housing is such a vital part of our mission of enriching lives and minds by focusing on strengths and well-being.
WellPower provides mental health and behavioral health services for people in Denver. For some people receiving treatment with us, housing-related support may be part of their care because having a safe and stable place to live can support recovery, well-being, and ongoing treatment goals.
How Housing Can Support Mental Health Treatment
Stable housing can make it easier for people to participate in treatment, build daily routines, manage medications, connect with community supports, and focus on recovery. When housing support is part of a person’s treatment plan, WellPower teams work with each person to understand their needs and explore available options.
Housing options are limited and depend on availability, eligibility, and level of need. If someone is receiving mental health services through WellPower, their treatment team can help determine whether housing-related support may be necessary, appropriate, and available. Treatment teams do their best to connect people with appropriate resources, but housing support does not guarantee placement or a voucher.
Housing Support at WellPower
Housing through WellPower is one type of support that can help people who are already in mental health services. Please note that housing is not a stand-alone service, and contacting WellPower does not guarantee housing, placement in a residential program, or access to a housing voucher. For more information about mental health and behavioral health services with WellPower, call (303) 504-7700 or visit wellpower.org/mental-health-services/.
If you are already receiving services with WellPower and want to find out more about housing-related support, talk with your case manager, clinician, or treatment team. They can help you understand what support may be available, including community resources, Coordinated Entry assessments, or referrals related to residential treatment when appropriate.
Types of Housing Support
Level 2 Mental Health Transitional Living Homes
WellPower operates 11 mental health transitional living homes (often referred to as residential treatment homes) that support people with mental health and substance use needs in the Denver area. These homes are part of treatment and recovery planning, not general housing placement. Admission depends on clinical need, eligibility, and availability.
Permanent Supportive Housing and Community Resources
WellPower also offers supportive housing programs and helps connect some people receiving services with community housing resources. These supports may include referrals, help identifying resources, or coordination with community partners when available and appropriate.
Housing Vouchers
WellPower does not currently have an open housing voucher waitlist. Voucher waitlist availability is determined by the Colorado Division of Housing. When a waitlist is authorized to open, WellPower and community partners will share announcements, typically 30-60 days before the waitlist opens.
Mental health treatment is not required to apply for a housing voucher when a waitlist is open. While WellPower services may include limited housing-related support for people receiving care, that support does not guarantee housing placement or a voucher.
