A Sober House on Pagosa Street

The house sits on Pagosa Street, though no house number is published for it. Pagosa Street runs through a residential section of Aurora, giving residents a quieter setting than the city's busier commercial corridors while still keeping them inside Arapahoe County's transit and service network.

Housing for a Wide Range of People Rebuilding Their Lives

Helpful Heart House describes its mission as offering a safe, comfortable and peaceful housing environment for people working to reclaim their lives, and it lists the populations it serves broadly: people in recovery, veterans, LGBTQ+ individuals, survivors of human trafficking, pregnant individuals, and people re-entering society after incarceration. This house operates inside that wider mission.

What Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado Certification Establishes

Certification through Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado, the state's NARR affiliate, requires the house to disclose its fees and rules before move-in, follow a published code of ethics, and remain subject to an outside complaint process. Colorado assigns no level to individual residences, so certification is the verifiable fact behind this listing.

Recovery Housing in Arapahoe County

Aurora is the largest city in Arapahoe County, whose seat is Littleton, and its size gives residents on Pagosa Street access to a broad base of outpatient providers, veterans' services and re-entry programs across the metro's south and east side.
