*AMI: Area Median Income. Renters qualify for different housing programs if their income is below a specified percentage of AMI.
1175 Lee Hill is a two-story apartment building located on the corner of Lee Hill and Broadway in north Boulder with 31 fully-furnished one bedroom apartments. This is a Housing First development which aims to support the chronically homeless, one of Boulder County's most vulnerable populations. In addition to housing, residents will receive support services from case managers.
The Housing First approach is founded on the belief that the first and primary need for the homeless population is to obtain stable housing. Other issues (e.g. disabling conditions, joblessness, poor health, alcohol addiction) that may affect the homeless can and should be addressed through case management and supportive services once housing is obtained.
Similar programs in other municipalities have shown that once these individuals have stable housing, they begin to work on the other hurdles in their lives. Studies have also shown that Housing First programs are highly cost effective as they significantly reduce demand on hospital emergency rooms, jails and court systems, and human service agencies.
