Grace Mountain is a Colorado host home agency. We place adults 17 and older with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) with trained host home providers in Arapahoe, Douglas, Denver, Jefferson, Adams, and Boulder counties, through the HCBS-DD waiver. Each home takes no more than three clients, and our Agency Nurse, QA specialist and a dedicated Care Coordinator stay with every placement.
A host home is where an adult with IDD lives with a trained provider family, in the provider’s own home, through Colorado’s HCBS-DD waiver.
For many of the adults we serve, this is the first time their living environment looks and feels like a real home: a kitchen table set for dinner, a bedroom with their own things, a family that gets curious about who they are rather than what they need. And ask any provider family: the learning runs both ways.
We accept the full spectrum of need — including placements other agencies decline.

A host home is a residential service in Colorado's HCBS-DD waiver. An adult with intellectual or developmental disabilities lives with a trained host home provider in the provider's own home. The state calls it Individual Residential Services and Supports (IRSS).
The HCBS-DD waiver pays for host home services. The person pays room and board from their own income, under a written residential agreement. Under Colorado's Post-Eligibility Treatment of Income (PETI) rule, phased in from August 2026, some people also contribute part of their income toward their care. A worksheet sets the amount, and nobody loses Medicaid because of it.
No more than three clients per home, by design.
