RESOURCING
Here at In the Weeds we understand that sometimes support means helping find other resources outside of mental or physical health. That is why we work with you on an individual level to find the help you may need. That includes, but not limited to: HOUSING, FOOD, COUNSELING, AND JOB PLACEMENT. If you can't pay your bills or find an adequate living situation then there may be a little stress tied to that! We have recently joined collaboration efforts with Unite Us! Colorado that connects us to a plethora of local, state and national resources. Please make an appointment with Blaine and we can find what fits you right!
