A Certified Recovery Home in Aurora

The residence is certified through Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado, the state's BHA-approved certifying body. Colorado House Bill 19-1009 makes that certification the standard a recovery residence has to meet to take state referrals and funding, and it requires the operator to publish fees and house rules, keep a written relapse and discharge policy, and answer to outside complaint review. Anyone can walk through how a house gets certified in Colorado before comparing options.

Housing Connected to an Outpatient Treatment Provider

Mountain West Recovery runs intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs in addition to its housing, which means a resident at the Deerborn house can start or continue clinical treatment without switching agencies. The company accepts Medicaid and Optum Health insurance and keeps a no-cost program and scholarships open to residents who qualify.

What This Sober House Does Not Provide

Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado lists Mountain West Recovery's certified residences as not supporting medication-assisted treatment, family housing, or rent subsidies. Someone taking buprenorphine or methadone, or someone needing to house children, should ask Mountain West Recovery directly what alternatives it can point to before applying here.
