Micro-Communities
What is the La Paz Micro-Community?
In partnership with the City and County of Denver and the All in Mile High (House1000) initiative, CVC opened the La Paz Micro-Community in March 2024. The site contains 60 individual shelters that have a bed and desk, as well as a shared community space that includes restrooms, showers, a kitchen, and gathering spaces. La Paz is expected to be expanded later in the year with an additional 60 units.
