We Fortify are community builders. 

We love humans. We meet them where they are. We ask questions & we listen. We help them heal. We encourage & celebrate them.

Currently, we’re completing our flagship program, Working Fusion at Mill Street, a tiny home village for young adults.

Mission

Working Fusion at Mill Street is a neighborhood community that fortifies motivated young adults to create lives of purpose and sustainable independence.

By providing dignified housing, accessible support services, and an inspiring peer community, Working Fusion becomes a partner in creating a clear path forward for young adults who have experienced economic challenges.

With a deep respect for each person’s inherent worth, potential, and desire for self-sufficiency, Working Fusion offers compassionate guidance, tenacious encouragement, and caring accountability.

Background Statement

In order to build a healthy and sustainable community and address the housing priorities of the City of Colorado Springs and the surrounding community, We Fortify was created in late 2019. We Fortify’s Working Fusion at Mill Street program is a first-of-its kind housing initiative in Colorado Springs, CO, providing dignified housing with 18 stand alone tiny homes and wrap-around trauma-informed services.

We exist to pivot vulnerable young adults, (between the ages of 18-25), who are housing insecure into a state of economic/emotional stability and social connectedness

Integrated Strategies:

Safe dignified housing within a small supportive community

Individualized trauma-responsive therapies

Life skills education

Living wage career placement
