Community Living Alternatives, Inc.

A nonprofit organization

Founded in 1979, Community Living Alternatives (CLA) has been a trusted leader in person-centered services for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) across Colorado.

We believe everyone deserves a safe home, meaningful daily engagement, and a place to belong. For more than four decades, CLA has partnered with individuals and families to make that vision a reality.

We provide:

  • Residential Services — through host home and family caregiver models, matched carefully to each person’s needs and lifestyle.

  • CLASS Day Program — where participants build skills, explore creative interests, make friends, and connect with their communities through inclusive activities.

CLA is intentionally right-sized, which means we can provide truly individualized care. Many of our staff and providers have been with CLA for over 10 years, ensuring strong relationships, stability, and responsive support.

With your support, CLA continues to create homes and programs where adults with I/DD can live meaningful, connected, and fulfilling lives.

Mission

CLA's mission is to enhance the life of each person with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DD) towards fulfillment of their life goals through choice and support in homes and community.
