Inclusive Health Collaborative
Community Partners:
Homeward Alliance operates a continuum of programs and initiatives, ranging from critical survival gear, to employment services, to homelessness prevention. They are not only an alliance of services, but also an alliance of volunteers, donors, agency partners and other community stakeholders. Homeward Alliance envisions a community in which homelessness is rare, short-lived and non-recurring.
The Murphy Center is a collaboration between 20 independent agencies and countless community partners. Founded in 2009 as a one-stop shop for people who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness, the Murphy Center was the first of its kind in northern Colorado.
The Street Dog Coalition was founded in Fort Collins, CO in 2015 and although they have teams in over 40 cities across the country, Fort Collins remains their “headquarters”, the “Mothership”. Beginning in 2019, The Street Dog Coalition teamed up with Colorado State University’s Inclusive Health Collaborative to practice street medicine with veterinary, medical, and social work students. Due to Covid-19, their street medicine protocols have changed, but their mission (to provide free medical care and related services to pets of people experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness) hasn’t.
