Ascending to Health Respite Care is an organization serving people experiencing homelessness in Colorado’s Pikes Peak Region. It provides a safe place for individuals to recover after discharge from local hospitals, helping address the need for care and support beyond a hospital stay.

The organization offers respite care and accepts referrals through a process described on its website. It also shares information about its programs, impact, success stories, and facts about homelessness, supporting clients, healthcare providers, and community partners in understanding its services.
