Homelessness isn’t inevitable—it’s a failure of systems, not people. In this special three-part podcast series, we take you behind the scenes of Elevated Denver’s Collaboratory, where lived experts, service providers, policymakers, and business leaders came together to co-design solutions to systemic breakdowns.

In Episode 1, we introduce the Collaboratory model—a groundbreaking approach centering those with lived experience to design better systems. Hear from co-designers Elise, Myra, Betsy, Jessie, and Lindi, as well as facilitator Jamie and Elevated Denver team members about the challenges, breakthroughs, and how trust-building led to the Peer-Led Resource Connection Hub.
