Redtail Ponds opened in 2015 as Northern Colorado’s first Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) community. It was developed using best practice models proven effective throughout the country.
Redtail Ponds provides housing for a mix of incomes with its one and two bedroom apartments combined with onsite services to promote stability and independence. The community is designed to meet the special housing needs of formerly homeless individuals with disabilities and formerly homeless veterans.
Redtail Ponds features 60 apartments along with a community kitchen, fitness area, computer room, community garden and several common areas for residents to congregate. New residents for this community are referred through partner agencies.
