“Program Service accomplishments: It has been another year of progress for AspenPointe with significant additions in the 2016-17 fiscal year that included new partnerships, new programs and new facilities in our commitment to providing superior whole-person health care in the Pikes Peak Region. These changes will undoubtedly result in more access to care, better outcomes and healthier communities. Our two new locations, slated to officially open in Fiscal Year 2017-18, are in historically underserved areas of Colorado Springs: North and Southeast. AspenPointe Woodmen and AspenPointe Jet Wing will provide much-needed services in these areas, but will also allow us to relocate administrative roles from other sites such our Lehman facility and provide more clinical care at Lehman. AspenPointe Woodmen will be our second 24/7 walk-in crisis center and outpatient care facility in Colorado Springs. This site, located at the NorthCare Building near the St. Francis Medical Center off Powers Boulevard and Woodmen Road, provides crisis care at any time to anyone, regardless of age or ability to pay. Our Jet Wing facility is a 70,000-square-foot building at the intersection of Jet Wing Drive and Fountain Boulevard. It will house our contact center in addition to a full continuum of mental health and substance misuse services for all ages. There is also the opportunity to provide physical health care at this location through partnerships such as the one we started this year with Value Care Health Clinic. Our two organizations combined forces to establish a Health Home at our Moreno adult facility to provide physical care along with existing behavioral health, substance misuse, pharmaceutical and laboratory services. Over 1,700 visits have occurred from its opening in October 2016 till June 2017. This new partnership has allowed a one-stop ease of access for patients as they receive various treatment. Adapting to the current health care needs of our community, AspenPointe also initiated two significant programs this year: The Seven Challenges and Zero Suicide. The Seven Challenges is a youth-focused, evidenced-based substance misuse program. Zero Suicide enables our entire organization to identify and respond to those individuals, prone to suicidality, who may need additional care. These areas are of growing concern for the communities we serve as we continue to offer new solutions.”
