Partners in Housing adds apartments for homeless families in Colorado Springs
Three homeless or near-homeless families will move next week into a new apartment complex from Partners in Housing, following a ribbon-cutting ceremony Monday afternoon.
People may think it’s only three, one-bedroom apartments being added to what’s become a dearth of transitional and affordable housing in Colorado Springs, said Mary Stegner, executive director of Partners in Housing, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary.
And that’s not much.
But the new project’s impact on the community will be exponential, she said.
“It is a big deal to these three families, and the next three and the next three, to have a safe, stable place to live,” Stegner said.
