Supportive Housing & Homeless Programs (SHHP)
Description:
SHHP is a statewide housing agency that operates within the Colorado Department of Human Services, Office of Behavioral Health and Housing. SHHP’s rental assistance programs are available in all 64 counties in Colorado. SHHP partners with more than 60 private nonprofit agencies to provide housing options for Colorado citizens with special needs. The rental assistance programs provide a subsidy for extremely low- and very low-income families—the elderly, the homeless, and persons with disabilities—to rent decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the community. Most of the housing programs are tenant based, allowing participants to live in privately owned housing (including single-family homes, townhouses, and apartments).
