Adult Protective Services
About the program

Adult Protective Services (APS) is a state-supervised, county-administered system. Statewide county APS programs provide for the safety and protection of at-risk adults who are, or are suspected to be, victims of mistreatment or self-neglect. The County APS programs receive reports of self-neglect and mistreatment, which includes physical abuse, sexual abuse, caretaker neglect, exploitation, and harmful acts; investigate allegations and conduct an assessment of the client’s strengths and needs; and arrange for needed services to reduce risk and improve safety. Our team is here to support and assist you with the APS data system (CAPS), case consult and technical assistance, training needs and/or answering your general APS-related questions. APS staff can be reached via the contact information below.

BHA Launches Statewide Campaign to Promote 988 Colorado Mental Health Line

The Colorado Behavioral Health Administration and 988 Crisis Hotline launched a campaign to increase awareness and utilization of the 988 Colorado Mental Health Line (988). The service connects people in Colorado to trained specialists offering compassionate mental health, emotional, and substance use support via call, text, and chat.

Colorado has been a pioneer in delivering life-saving crisis services since 2014 with its Colorado Crisis Line, well ahead of the federal mandate for state-provided crisis services. With the nationwide introduction of 988 in July 2022, there is now a unified, easy-to-remember number for those in crisis.

It is important to note that those who are familiar with the Colorado Crisis Line will still be able to call or text to get the support they need from the number they know well. But now, they’ll have an additional option with 988.

Learn more on the 988 Colorado website.
 

About the Colorado Behavioral Health Administration

The Behavioral Health Administration is the state administration responsible for ensuring all people in Colorado have access to quality mental health and substance use disorder services, regardless of where they live, or ability to pay. BHA will help bring together community groups and governmental agencies to design a behavioral health system for all people in Colorado that is easy to access, and offers high-quality care that considers the whole person and their needs.

BHA impacts the behavioral health system by continuously improving the access to, and quality of, affordable care; reducing stigma so that the people of Colorado feel confident and comfortable seeking support and/or treatment for their mental health and substance use disorder; providing ways to find care that are free and confidential; engaging with diverse community groups and providers to expand services; and recruiting and retaining the workforce to support the people of Colorado.

"Behavioral health" refers to an individual's mental and emotional well-being and actions that affect an individual's overall wellness. Behavioral health issues and disorders include substance use disorders, mental health disorders, serious psychological distress, serious mental disturbance, and suicide and range from unhealthy stress or subclinical conditions to diagnosable and treatable diseases.
 

BHA Resources

The searchable online directory allows people in Colorado to find behavioral health providers licensed by the Behavioral Health Administration (BHA) and to search for specific services or use a guided search to identify providers or resources that best meet their needs. Searches can be narrowed by criteria such as location, days of operation, language support, payment types accepted, and more.
  • Lift The Label is a public awareness campaign that strives to remove damaging labels and stigma that prevent those with addiction from seeking effective treatment. The campaign is run by the Colorado Behavioral Health Administration and is funded through a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that leads public health efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation.

Low-income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP)
About the program

The Colorado Low-income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP) is a federally funded program that helps eligible Coloradoans pay a portion of their winter home heating costs. Our goal is to help bring warmth, comfort and safety to your home and family by assisting with heating costs.

The LEAP program works to keep our communities warm during the winter (November through April) by providing assistance with heating costs, equipment repair and/or replacement of inoperable heating systems. While the program is not intended to pay the entire cost of home heating, we aim to help alleviate some of the burdens that come with Colorado's colder months.

In most cases, the energy assistance benefit is paid directly to the household energy supplier. In most cases, payments are made directly to the primary heating fuel vendor and a notice will be sent to the client informing them of the benefit amount. Other benefits provided by LEAP include repair or replacement of a home’s primary heating system, such as a furnace. The program does not provide financial assistance for any type of temporary or portable heating.

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
About the program

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

SNAP provides food assistance benefits as part of a federal nutrition program to help low-income households purchase food. SNAP is a means-tested benefit program and is broadly available to households with low incomes. SNAP eligibility rules and benefit levels are, for the most part, set at the federal level and uniform across the nation, though Colorado has some flexibility to tailor aspects of it.

Double Up Food Bucks is a program that doubles the value of SNAP benefits at participating farmer’s markets and food retail stores. Learn more about this benefit for Colorado's families, farmers and communities here. 

There are several ways to apply for SNAP benefits:

  • Apply online using the Colorado PEAK website.

  • Print one of the applications below, fill it out and return it by mail, fax or in person to the local county human services office. 
  • ​Apply using the assistance of a SNAP Outreach partner. These partners are contracted with the State to provide support during the process and then submit the application on your behalf.

What happens after an application is returned to the county office?

  • An eligibility technician will begin processing the case as soon as possible to determine if we need to complete an interview or if the household needs to provide any additional information. The county office has up to 30 days to process an application.
  • An interview needs to be completed once every 12 months for SNAP benefits unless the household has no earned income and all members are over the age of 60 or have a disability. 
  • If an interview has been completed within the last 12 months, an eligibility technician may attempt to contact clients at the phone number provided on the application or send a letter requesting verification of reported information to clarify the information submitted on application.
  • After approval, clients can view and manage SNAP information and access recertification packets on the PEAK website.
