Planting Roots for Rural Colorado’s Mental Health

---

Peace of Mind Collaborative is launching a $2,000,000 Capital Campaign to help establish a permanent behavioral health and community wellness center in Elizabeth, Colorado.

This campaign is about more than a building. It is about creating a lasting foundation for access to care in rural Colorado, where distance, cost, and limited local resources too often prevent individuals and families from getting the support they need.

Peace of Mind Collaborative is raising funds to support this long-term vision. Clinical services provided within the space will be delivered through our partner organization, Peace of Mind 5280, Inc.

Rural communities face unique barriers to mental health care, including distance, limited provider availability, financial hardship, and stigma. Peace of Mind Collaborative was created to help reduce those barriers and expand access to support across Colorado.

As Elizabeth and surrounding communities continue to grow, the need for stable, local, long-term access to behavioral health services is growing too. A permanent facility will help create consistency, sustainability, and a stronger foundation for care close to home.

This campaign is an investment in long-term access, community wellness, and a future where rural Coloradans do not have to leave their community to find support.

This project is designed to expand access to care and support for individuals and families across Colorado, including:

• Children and adolescents
• Adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, or major life transitions
• First responders
• Law enforcement
• Educators
• Veterans, military members, and their families
• Families impacted by mental health or substance use challenges
• Rural and underserved community members

A permanent, community-rooted facility will help ensure these individuals have a reliable place to turn for support close to home.

This new facility will anchor mental health care in our rural region for decades to come.

Our Vision for the Facility

The facility will support access to behavioral health and wellness services in a permanent, community-based setting. Clinical services offered within the space will be provided through Peace of Mind 5280, Inc.

• 8–12 private therapy rooms
• A children’s therapy and playroom
• Group therapy rooms
• Telehealth suites for remote access
• A welcoming lobby
• An outdoor healing courtyard
• Offices for clinical and administrative staff

The location will be:

• Centrally located in Town of Elizabeth
• A safe, permanent foundation for long-term behavioral health care

Your support helps fund the land, planning, construction, equipment, and infrastructure needed to create a permanent home for access to care.

A detailed budget narrative is available upon request. 

With a permanent facility in place, this project will help create long-term stability and expand access to care in meaningful ways, including:

• Increased service capacity
• More free and reduced-cost sessions
• Dedicated child and adolescent support space
• Expanded support for first responders, law enforcement, veterans, and families
• Stronger telehealth access for rural communities
• Greater opportunity for partnership, outreach, and community education

Rural communities experience higher rates of:

• Suicide
• Untreated depression
• Substance use
• Social isolation
• Barriers to care due to distance and cost
• Fewer mental health providers per capita
   

With rising rents and commercial development pushing east from Denver, the risk of losing accessible mental health services grows every year.

A permanent facility is not simply helpful, it is essential.

We invite donors, foundations, businesses, and community members to partner with us in creating a permanent home for access to mental health care in rural Colorado.

Naming & Dedication opportunities are a way to connect your story, your family, your business, or a loved one’s legacy to a space that will support healing for years to come.

• Building
  Help create a permanent home for rural mental health care in Elizabeth. This naming opportunity recognizes the lead partner who makes it possible for our community to have a stable, long-term place to receive support.
• Healing Courtyard
  This outdoor space will offer a quiet place to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with nature. A donor who names the courtyard will help create a peaceful environment for children, families, and first responders who need a moment of calm.
• Group Therapy Rooms
  These rooms will hold support groups, education nights, and wellness workshops. Naming a group room is a powerful way to honor a loved one or show your commitment to community connection.
• Children’s Therapy and Playroom
  This warm, welcoming space will be designed just for kids and teens. A donor who names this room will help create a safe place where young people can feel seen, heard, and supported.
• Telehealth Suite
  This space will connect people in even more rural areas to care when they cannot make it to the office. Naming the telehealth suite reflects a commitment to reaching those who are often the hardest to reach.
• Individual Therapy Rooms
  Each therapy room will be a private, calming space where healing conversations happen every day. Naming a room offers a meaningful and lasting way to support ongoing care.
• Lobby and Welcome Area
  The first impression of our center will be a warm, inviting space where people feel at ease. A donor who names the lobby helps create that feeling of comfort from the moment someone walks in the door.

  We will also feature a special recognition area inside the building that honors businesses, families, and individuals whose generous gifts helped make this project possible.
