Aurora's bridge-housing capacity centers on Salvation Army Crossroads (340 beds) and Comitis Crisis Center (140 beds, family-focused), connected via Mile High United Way Continuum of Care coordinated entry; intake requires sobriety evaluation, ID processing, and a 90-day case plan.
Bridge or interim housing in Aurora is delivered primarily through Salvation Army Crossroads Shelter on East Smith Road (340 beds, single adults) and Comitis Crisis Center on Peoria Street (140 beds, family and youth focused). Coordinated entry runs through the Metro Denver Homeless Initiative under Mile High United Way Continuum of Care contracts. Intake requires identification or fingerprint-based ID assistance, behavioral-health screening, and enrollment in a 90-day case plan with measurable housing goals. Aurora Mental Health Center provides on-site clinicians. The Aurora Day Resource Center offers showers, mail, and case management. The city's hotel-voucher motel program (cold-weather activation under 32 degrees) supplements bed capacity during winter.
Shelters operating without active Aurora business licenses, failing fire-life-safety inspection under Code Ch. 50, or refusing protected-class applicants face license revocation and Colorado Civil Rights Division enforcement.
