While clients maintain more independence than in a traditional residential setting, PHP + Supportive Housing offers a comparable level of support through daily treatment, medication and case management, peer support, and structured housing. For many individuals, it serves as an effective alternative to inpatient or residential treatment.

Our program is intentionally structured to mirror many aspects of a traditional workday. Clients are expected to wake up at a consistent time, get ready for the day, leave the house, arrive on time, participate in programming, and return home in the afternoon. This routine helps build healthy habits, personal responsibility, time management skills, and the consistency needed for long-term success in recovery, employment, and independent living. Clients typically participate in treatment programming Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at our Arvada office, with lunch provided each day. During treatment hours, clients engage in group therapy, individual services, case management, recovery-focused activities, and work toward personalized treatment goals. Outside of programming, clients are encouraged to continue building healthy routines and life skills. Evenings may include recovery meetings, gym visits, walks or hikes, recreational activities, community outings, personal responsibilities, and approved medical or recovery-related appointments. Housing expectations help create structure, accountability, and a supportive recovery environment while allowing clients to practice the skills they are learning in treatment. Weekends often include recovery meetings, recreational activities, community outings, religious services for those who wish to attend, and additional opportunities to strengthen recovery and build healthy connections. Clients who are in good standing may also be eligible for approved passes to spend time with family and loved ones when clinically appropriate.

PHP + Supportive Housing is designed to be an intensive, full-time treatment program. During participation, clients are expected to focus primarily on their recovery, personal growth, and treatment goals. For most individuals, recovery becomes their full-time job during this phase of care. As clients progress through the program and move closer to successful completion, our team can assist with resume development, interview preparation, job searching, educational planning, and other next-step goals to help support a successful transition back into the community.

No. PHP + Supportive Housing is a voluntary treatment program designed to provide structure, accountability, and support while helping clients build the skills necessary for long-term recovery and independent living, and is not a locked or secured facility. Clients are free to leave the program at any time, though doing so may impact their treatment progress, housing placement, legal obligations, or other recovery goals. To protect client privacy and safety and to minimize disruptions to treatment and housing operations, visitors are generally not permitted in program housing or at the office. Exceptions may be made with prior clinical approval or for scheduled family therapy sessions and other treatment-related activities when deemed clinically appropriate. Our team recognizes the importance of healthy family and support systems and works with clients to identify appropriate ways to maintain those connections throughout treatment.

Housing arrangements vary by location and availability. Some clients may share living spaces with other recovery-focused individuals, creating opportunities for peer support, accountability, and community.

Yes. We can work with clients to coordinate door-to-door transportation from another treatment facility to Untethered Recovery and can generally assist with transportation to the intake appointment. Transportation assistance may also be available for treatment-related services, recovery meetings, court appearances, group outings, and other approved recovery activities. Availability varies based on individual needs, scheduling, and program resources. For medical appointments and other non-program-related obligations, clients are encouraged to utilize MedRide, public transportation, personal support networks, or other community resources whenever possible. Our team can help connect clients with available transportation resources as part of their recovery planning.
