Year: 2023

It is no secret that homelessness is a national issue that requires regional responses and substantial programmatic collaboration. However, a regional response to homelessness had not been adopted in Adams County, Colorado until early 2022. Collaboration between the county and its municipal partners existed prior to 2022, but it was not systematic and frequently involved one-off project development. This decentralization often led to siloed and duplicative approaches to homelessness policy and program development.
