Who We Are
The Colorado Qualifying House (Q-House) is a transitional housing & positive skill development program located on over 70 acres of land at the bottom of Mt. Blue Sky. The Q-House serves as a Residential Treatment Center that provides male youth ages 16-21 with opportunities for positive growth through evidence-based interventions and innovative programming, including on-site school & vocational opportunities, therapeutic support, community engagement, and tailored programming that is co-created in collaboration with all youth and staff.
The Q House supports youth in developing the skills and resources needed to lead self-determined lives without experiencing the barriers of future systems involvement. Our trauma-informed approach emphasizes collaborative growth and recognizes that everyone – youth and staff alike – have goals that we can use our collective knowledge and experiences to mutually support.
What We Do
• Highly trained and experienced staff utilize a strengths-based approach to connect with youth, achieve student-led goals, and facilitate successful community interdependence.
• Provide youth and family a healthy and dynamic environment with a variety of outdoor activities including skiing, snowboarding, geocaching and fishing.
• Focus on work and service projects that promote positive work ethic and pro-social values to learn essential life skills and give back to the community supporting us.
• Provide on-site support for students completing their HS Diplomas and GEDs, and preparation for vocational schools, junior colleges, community-based employment, and scholarships for higher education.
