City of Boulder High Utilizer Taskforce
This grant supports an interagency task force consisting of non-profit
and governmental stakeholders from across Boulder County. Individuals
experiencing unsheltered homelessness are often high utilizers of community
services, including emergency room visits, mental health care, interactions
with the legal system, and police and ambulance services.
The task force has developed a proposal aimed at connecting these high
utilizers with non-traditional supportive housing, alongside comprehensive
services such as peer support, case management, and treatment. The grant
funds will support the hiring of a consultant to design and implement
a public-private funding plan to support the task force’s proposed solution.
