This is a low barrier homeless shelter which means they don't test you for drugs and/or alcohol to stay there however; they don't tolerate disruptive behavior regardless of whether you're intoxicated or not. They also offer a slew of services on site (i.e. showers, laundry, haircuts, Colorado DHS, Peak Vista Mobile medical care, parole, Homes for Vets, Pikes Peak Library System and housing location/assistance).

They serve two free meals a day here: breakfast from 6am to 7am and supper from 4pm to 5pm (lunch can be had @ Catholic Charities Marian House from 10:45am to 1pm in downtown Colorado Springs).

Both the men's and women's shelters are clean, safe and mostly secure facilities to sleep in and store your belongings in during the day. I say mostly secure because there is theft of phones and other small items when left unattended. Otherwise its an excellent place to be if you're homeless.

Also, there is no time limit for staying here. I know people that have been here for years.
