About Golden's Thriving Communities Navigation Program
The City of Golden’s Thriving Communities Community Resource and Housing Navigation Program identifies resources for individuals experiencing homelessness and also assists people experiencing a housing crisis by helping them navigate resources and support to maintain their housing. These resources assist many at-risk and older adults in our Golden community and are designed to stop homelessness before it begins. The Navigation Program partners with several community organizations and local churches.
