Community Reach Center's mission is to enhance the health of our community.

About us

In 1957, Community Reach Center started in Commerce City, Colorado. It began with a small team of mental health experts from the University of Colorado Medical Center. Ten years later, a big change happened. The government passed the Community Mental Health Act to improve mental health care. This was part of President Kennedy’s plan for better mental health treatment. Our center was the first in our region to get support from this new law. We created a safe place for mental health care that people from other states came to see. Now, 65 years later, we help around 13,000 people every year. We provide care in different locations like clinics, schools, and homes to support our community.

    Last weekend, our Clinical Director, Daniela Rossi, and Program Manager, Vanessa Alarcón, LCSW, LAC, ACS, attended the National Latino Behavioral Health Association Conference in San Antonio, TX! 📍 The biggest takeaways were getting the opportunity to network with like-minded professionals who are passionate about serving the Latinx population and learning about effective interventions in the behavioral health space. Shoutout to Maestro Jerry Tello who gave a blessing to all attendees! We love investing in professional development opportunities like these and can't wait for more. 💙

    Back-to-school season is exciting and challenging. ✏️ For many students, adapting to a new schedule and being surrounded by peers again can be a big change from how they spent time on summer break. That’s why we’re here with our care manager, Juan, to share some helpful tips to get you and your kids back in the groove. 💃🕺

    Yesterday, our leadership team stopped by our Westminster Outpatient location to serve up some delicious BBQ and show appreciation to our staff! 🌭 Our Westminster team just moved into their new building, and this was the perfect opportunity to welcome them into their new space where they will be serving our Westminster community. 😌 Shoutout to all the CRC staff who helped get this new building ready for our consumers. 🎉 We had a lot of fun and can’t wait for our next stop, Broomfield Pediatrics!

    Clinical Team of the Year! 🥳 The incredibly hardworking Community Reach Center Westminster Outpatient team won Clinical Team of the Year and I couldn’t be more excited. This is my first year as a manager, a role I always thought was too hard for me to ever do. And now that I’m doing it- it’s been a blast! (And it’s actually much harder than I thought it would be 😂). Every day is like trying to solve a never-ending puzzle. How do we meet the needs of those who need it most? How do we motivate our teams to give their all and also help promote self-care and foster retention? How can we provide the most excellent services possible? The more complex the question, the more I’m drawn to the puzzle. I’m very proud of the awesome people on my team who help problem-solve needs on the daily. Also I’m thrilled to have won my second employee-voted award! This year I won the Jack of All Trades award for taking on diverse responsibilities with skill and enthusiasm, and willingness to contribute to the organization’s success. It’s a very meaningful recognition to receive. 🥲 And finally, I was awarded a scholarship to complete coursework towards a Conflict Resolution graduate certificate at the Colorado State University School of Social Work 🥳 I’m very thankful to the Community Reach Center board for their financial support for the scholarship, and for recognizing our team this year. 👏 #LatinasinSocialWork #LatinasinLeadership

    Yesterday, we celebrated our amazing staff at CRC's Annual All-Staff Event for the important work they do in our community. 🎉 Our staff treated themselves to well-deserved self-care activities like soothing sound-bowl therapy, creative expression at our art hub, chair massages, therapeutic candle pouring, and loving on some adorable (and adoptable!) furry friends! 🐶🐱 Events like these remind us that just as we advocate for the health and well-being of others in our community, we must prioritize our own health and happiness too. Thank you to everyone who made this event a success! 💙 Candle Pouring: Burn Candle Bar Art Therapy: Heather Grady Massage Therapy: Body Techniques Sound Bowl Healing: Intune Puppy and Kitty Therapy: Maxfund Animal Shelter
