Frequently Asked Questions FAQ Homeward Pikes Peak Colorado Springs

FAQs

What does Homeward Pikes Peak do?

Homeward Pikes Peak creates opportunities for individuals and families to restore dignity through treatment and recovery programs, mental health services and providing housing first. We do this through sober living homes, supportive housing, a residential treatment center, and clinical programs. All of our programs offer case management to set our clients up for success.

How do I get assistance with housing?

All potential clients must complete a VI-SPDAT (housing survey) to be eligible for HUD-funded housing in Colorado Springs. Homeward Pikes Peak works with the Colorado Springs Continuum of Care through the Coordinated Entry System to identify participants who qualify for Permanent Supportive Housing. If Homeward Pikes Peak has a vacancy in one of our Permanent Supportive Housing programs, selection will be made based on participants with the highest vulnerability factors identified from the VI-SPDAT. Contact will be made to the selected participant where intake, further evaluation, and the administration of a voucher will occur.

You may complete a VI-SPDAT at Homeward Pikes Peak on Mondays between 1:00 pm and 3:30 pm. and Thursdays between 1:00 pm and 3:30 pm. Appointments are not required during these times. You may also visit the downtown library, Westside Cares, Catholic Charities, or The Place (youth only).
