HEALTHCARE <br />Stout Street Health Center <br />2130 Stout Street, Denver, CO 80205 <br />(303) 293 -2220 <br />The Coalition has been delivering healthcare for the homeless in downtown Denver for more <br />than 30 years. In September 2014, the new Stout Street Health Center and Renaissance Stout <br />Street Lofts opened. This new development increases integrated health care access for up to <br />18,000 homeless individuals each year and provides supportive housing for 78 formerly <br />homeless households. Watch the video. <br />The 53,192 square foot Stout Street Health Center replaced the former Stout Street Clinic, an <br />aging structure that lacked adequate space to effectively meet the complex health care needs of <br />an expanding homeless population. <br />The Health Center introduces a unique model of integrated health care targeted to the needs of <br />homeless patients. It fully incorporates patient - centered, trauma- informed medical and mental <br />health care, substance treatment services, dental and vision care, social services and supportive <br />housing to more fully address the spectrum of problems homeless adults and children bring to <br />their medical providers. <br />In 2013, the Coalition provided health care services to 13,323 men, women and children, ranging <br />in age from infancy to over 85. Common diagnoses include hypertension, diabetes and asthma. <br />Frequently, homeless patients suffer from multiple diagnoses making treatment and care <br />significantly more challenging than for people who are not experiencing homelessness. <br />
