Karis Community

Karis Community is a community-model residential program serving individuals with serious and persistent mental illness since 1976.

Our mission mission is to provide a community where people heal together. Karis Community’s non-institutional, residential therapeutic community assists adults 21 years and older in making a gradual adjustment to independent living. Community members learn to make this adjustment by participating in our psycho-educational Empowerment Program. The Program improves the Community members’ quality of life by promoting their adjustment to mainstream participation in the greater community and avoiding future hospitalization. Being a part of the Karis means Community members learn to work with, share with, care about, and relate to others, so they gain real-life experience that equips them for integration into the mainstream of life. This learning process is achieved through a rigorously monitored program of activities, including weekly support groups and daily interaction and involvement with staff and other Community members. Community members learn to set and achieve specific personal goals, re-establish vocational, volunteer, or academic investment, and re-develop personal care habits. They are also enabled to develop interpersonal relationship skills and embrace awareness of their growing wellness. Karis Community serves 60-65 individuals per year, including current Community members and former Community members who attend monthly meetings of the follow-up Focus Group (where they can keep in touch with staff and each other and address any current issues).

At Karis Community, we believe that healing happens through connection, compassion, and support. Every day, we see the power of community in helping individuals managing serious and persistent mental illness find hope, purpose, and belonging.
This month, we're joining the national movement to raise awareness, fight stigma, and honor the courage it takes to ask for help. Mental health is health — and everyone deserves the resources and support to thrive.

We are also celebrating 49 years of hope and healing with our annual spring fundraiser. This event celebrates Karis' birthday, which is on May 12, 1976. Join us at Punch Bowl Social Denver, Thursday, May 15, from 6-9 pm! Tickets will sell out, so hurry! Visit https://kariscommunity.org/49-years-of-hope-healing/ for more information.
