GatewayMAT

About GatewayMAT

GatewayMAT is a sober living operator based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, running certified medication-assisted recovery housing across El Paso County. The name states the operator's focus directly: housing built around medication-assisted treatment.

A Medication-Assisted Recovery Housing Provider

GatewayMAT organizes its housing around medication-assisted treatment from the outset instead of leaving it to a house manager's discretion. Residents on buprenorphine, methadone or naltrexone are accepted at every GatewayMAT address, removing one of the most common obstacles people in medication-assisted recovery face when looking for sober housing in Colorado.

Two Sober Houses in Colorado Springs

GatewayMAT runs two sober living homes in Colorado Springs, known as the San Miguel house and the Saint Andrews house. Both operate under the same medication-assisted model and the same core house expectations, so a resident moving between them keeps the same program and simply changes addresses.

Serving El Paso County and the Pikes Peak Region

Colorado Springs is the seat of El Paso County and the hub of the Pikes Peak region, and GatewayMAT keeps its footprint inside that county instead of expanding into the Denver metro. Staying local keeps residents close to the outpatient prescribers who manage their medication, which matters more for a MAT-focused operator than for most sober living providers.

Recovery Housing Certification in Colorado

Certification for Colorado recovery residences is carried out by Ohio Recovery Housing - Colorado, the state's Behavioral Health Administration-approved body, instead of a state license. A residence can legally operate outside that system, so current certification status is worth confirming directly with the operator.

Applying to a GatewayMAT Sober House

Applications for either GatewayMAT house go through the operator. The most relevant questions here are specific to the medication-assisted model: how prescriptions are verified, which outside providers the house coordinates with, what the weekly cost covers, and how the house responds to a change in prescription or a relapse.
