The mission of the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless is to work collaboratively toward the prevention of homelessness and the creation of lasting solutions for families, children, and individuals who are experiencing or at-risk of homelessness throughout Colorado.
The Colorado Coalition for the Homeless pairs direct service grantmaking with housing development and policy work. Among the active grant programs is the Park Avenue Apartments RFP, which seeks a general contractor for a 60-unit permanent supportive housing development in Denver. That project sits alongside the coalition’s broader mission to prevent homelessness and create lasting solutions for families, children, and individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness throughout Colorado. Its recent grants show a consistent emphasis on housing assistance and case management, with large awards flowing to frontline providers across the state. The Salvation Army in Denver received $1,695,000 in 2023 and $804,804 in 2024 for housing assistance and case management, while Volunteers of America in Denver received $681,840 in 2023 and $340,920 in 2024 for the same general purpose. Urban Peak also appears in multiple years, including a 2023 award of $651,278 and 2024 and 2025 grants for case management. The pattern points to an organization funding both immediate stabilization and longer-term housing pathways for people experiencing homelessness.
Housing stabilization is the clearest thread in the grant list. Housing Solutions of the Southwest in Durango received $746,609 in 2023 for housing assistance, and later $185,185 in 2024 for housing assistance and case management. Aurora Housing in Aurora was awarded $619,403 in 2023 for housing assistance and $136,779 in 2024 for housing assistance and case management. The coalition also funds shelter-adjacent and transitional support. The Delores Project in Denver received $513,637 in 2023, then additional grants of $181,422 in 2024 and $261,039 in 2025 for housing assistance and case management. Posada in Pueblo was awarded $347,854 in 2023, followed by $184,873 in 2024 and $161,109 in 2025 for similar services. These awards align with the coalition’s focus on permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and services that help people retain housing.
Typical awards cluster in the middle six figures, with a p25 of $93,266, a median of $161,109, and a p75 of $361,278. The grant list also shows repeat awards to the same organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025, suggesting ongoing support rather than one-time funding only. The Colorado Coalition for the Homeless is structured to fund both individuals and organizations, and it also makes program-related investments. The active grant programs show at least one unsolicited statewide initiative tied to the Colorado Homeless Contribution Tax Credit, indicating a mix of direct service grants and policy-related funding.
