What believers are saying

What critics are saying

  • October 2024 cuts eliminated six co-responder jobs and WellPower’s virtual therapy program.
  • Colorado Medicaid enrollment swings pressure staffing, housing supports, and program continuity across both merged organizations.
  • Low reimbursement can trap WellPower in austerity, shrinking access and undermining the merger thesis.

What makes Wellpower unique

  • WellPower is Colorado’s largest community mental health center, spanning 30 sites and 200 community locations.
  • Its Denver model bundles crisis care, homeless outreach, pharmacy services, and addiction treatment under one roof.
  • The Jefferson Center merger created a larger statewide safety-net platform with broader behavioral-health coverage.

Located at WellPower's Recovery Centre at 4455 E. 12th Ave., the clinic currently operates Wednesdays from 1:00 to 16:30, with plans to expand hours. The initiative responds to rising overdose deaths in Colorado and Denver. WellPower serves over 22,000 individuals annually across 30 sites and nearly 200 community locations.
