TRE empowers individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live full, meaningful lives. We partner with families to navigate complex systems, fill gaps in government support, and deliver innovative programs that improve quality of life today—while building a stronger support system for tomorrow.

Government funding alone doesn’t cover the needs of the families we serve. Your gift helps us provide critical services, from early intervention for infants to family support programs that create opportunities for inclusion, respite, and growth.

Testimonials

"I love everyone at TRE. Helped us navigate an overwhelming system and helped turn my son's life around. Everyone has always been knowledgeable, compassionate, and eager to help, no matter the problem."

"By partnering with TRE my child has been able to communicate his wants and needs better, making him a much happier baby. I've learned that when you can let yourself go and play at their level they learn so much better. A little patience and a lot of play therapy goes a long way. I don't know how they're able but they will do anything they can for a child/family that needs help. Amazingly kind and friendly. Almost like a second family."

"TRE has been a true-life changer for my family. They have supported us in some capacity for the past 10 years. The therapists are experts in their respective fields and have provided my family with the highest quality of care. I would recommend TRE to all families in need of early intervention services."

Mission

Advocating for independence and inclusion, TRE partners with children and adults who have a variety of disabilities, delays, mental health or long-term care needs. We do this using a person-centered approach in coordinating care, promoting choices, and collaborating with community partners.

Background Statement

Since 1964, The Resource Exchange (TRE) has partnered with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) or delays—and their families—across El Paso, Pueblo, Teller, and Park counties. Today, we serve more than 14,000 children and adults, empowering people, strengthening families, and building inclusive communities.

What We Do

Home & Community-Based Services

We coordinate essential benefits that allow children and adults with disabilities, mental health, or long-term care needs to live at home rather than in a facility. These services provide independence, dignity, and quality care.

Early Childhood Services & Early Intervention

One in eight Colorado children experiences a developmental delay. With early support, many can reach their full potential. Our teams of therapists and mental health consultants work with families to foster growth and strong social-emotional development.

Family Support Services

Families often face costs beyond what insurance covers—adaptive equipment, accessible technology, and respite care. Our program helps fill these gaps, providing resources and support that strengthen families and improve quality of life.
