Our Philosophy

At Boulder, our care model is rooted in harm reduction with a low-barrier, compassionate approach that prioritizes patient autonomy and choice. We meet people where they are, and our clinicians empower patients to reduce harm and build stability on their own terms through nonjudgmental, non-coercive, non-punitive support. We work with patients to identify their own recovery goals and support them over time through shared decision-making.
