The Support Inc. Network, an Aurora provider of community-based solutions for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Colorado, plans to open seven new locations statewide this year. This expansion will increase the total number of Support Inc. locations to 13, providing comprehensive residential, day and clinical services.
“The Support Inc. Network’s expansion enhances our commitment to provide comprehensive services at each of our locations, ensuring that individuals and families have access to the vital support they need within their communities,” said Bentley Smith, CEO of Support Inc. “We anticipate this growth will create new jobs throughout the state, further contributing to the economic vitality and well-being of Colorado communities.”
With over 35 years of experience, The Support Inc. Network, which includes Support Inc., Pueblo Community Resources and Nostalgia Group Inc., currently serves more than 300 individuals. The network has existing offices in Denver, Aurora, Colorado Springs, Loveland, Pueblo and Sterling, offering day program services in Aurora and Pueblo. Loveland was the first of the new locations, opening in January. Additional sites will open throughout the year in Jefferson and Boulder counties, Colorado Springs, Greeley, Lakewood, Northglenn/Westminster, Durango and Grand Junction.
The Support Inc. Network employs a whole-person approach, allowing caregivers to gain a deep understanding of each individual’s needs. As a Program Approved Service Agency, the network is Medicaid certified, and its programs are approved by the State of Colorado. For instance, Sterling resident Dena Lucero cares for her daughter, Tatum, who has mild intellectual disabilities. Through Support Inc.’s Family Caregiver Program, the Lucero family receives financial compensation and comprehensive support, including access to additional caregivers, integrated health care services and life skills development.
