HWH + CO Gives Day 2023

Many of you know I started HWH back in 2018 to help the increasing number of people here in Denver facing housing insecurity. Our mission is to help people gain and maintain employment, as a means to make progress towards self-sufficiency. 

The HWH model is partner based and encompasses housing through partners, onsite mental health services, along with workforce training and employment placement at local businesses.

This supportive structure and services helps people stabilize, develop a support network, become trained, gain experience, and get a job. Working provides purpose, structure, community, dignity and money to become self-sufficient.

HWH is where people willing to put the work into restarting their lives can get working again, get housing, and get mental health support on their path to self-sufficiency.
