About Empowerment Program – Denver

Empowerment Program is located at 1600 York Street in Denver, within 4.7 miles of Glendale and North Washington. Denver, North Washington, Edgewater and Holly Hills all sit within 5 miles of the door. Denver is in Denver County, which shapes which public funding routes apply.

Empowerment Program delivers intensive outpatient and outpatient care. Medication-assisted treatment is part of the offer, the approach with the strongest evidence for opioid dependence. Substance use and mental health are treated together rather than in sequence. Video appointments are an option here. Trauma-focused work forms part of the approach.

How Much Does Treatment at Empowerment Program – Denver Cost?

Before insurance, typical prices in Colorado put intensive outpatient at $3,000 to $10,000 a month and standard outpatient care at $1,500 to $5,500 a month. Empowerment Program’s own fees were not found at the time of writing, so the figures describe the state as a whole.

Programs usually price the intake assessment, group therapy and individual counseling into the fee. If you need a specialized therapy such as EMDR, ask Empowerment Program whether it is offered and what it costs. A direct call is the quickest way to get an accurate figure.

I go here 2x a week for groups. I love the staff and the atmosphere. They really can and do meet most of your needs. If you ask and make an appointment you can get hygiene, they do std testing, they have snacks for most… groups. I told them I just got an apartment and one of the ladies bought me a comforter set, an air mattress, and a pillow set.

I like attending classes here and I win gift cards just for attending and winning a raffle at the end of class they also have hygiene assistance which I loved because they have so much good body washes, tooth paste,… shampoo, conditioner, pretty much everything you can think of they have it for free.

DO NOT RENT to anyone on this program!!! Empowerment does not care about how the tenants take care of the property. I begged them to come out and look at the house after it was tagged in the bedrooms. After the tenant… moved out I called the director Julie, seven times to no avail. Now am left with thousands of dollars in damages and no where to turn. Hope no one is ever in this situation.
