Posada’s mission is to provide housing and supportive services that empower homeless individuals and families in Pueblo County to become self-supporting members of the community.
Elko Family Shelter
Families with children in need are sheltered at Posada’s Elko Family Emergency Shelter in eleven units. This is Pueblo’s ONLY family shelter that keeps a family together in a single family setting to ensure their privacy as they work collectively with a Posada case worker to work towards permanent housing and self-sufficiency. Families are sheltered at Elko Family Emergency Shelter for up to two months as their basic needs of food, shelter and clothing are met.
