Housing Navigation
Housing Navigation
Mission Arvada’s case managers work with clients to establish sustainable living situations. We work together to help clients access appropriate housing options, fill out applications, collect necessary identification, secure housing, furnish that housing, and move clients into their new homes.
Clients who obtain apartments receive donated furnishings through Mission Arvada. If you have furniture or household items you’d like to donate toward this cause, contact Mission Arvada to see if your items are needed at this time (ph. 303-422-1174.)
If you’d like to help clients with rental application fees or deposits, you can make a donation via Colorado Gives, and dedicate the funding to "Applications and Deposits." Donate HERE
