Cheyenne Village

Cheyenne Village helps people with disabilities lead happy, healthy and fulfilling lives. It was founded in 1971 on the site of historic McLaughlin Lodge in Manitou Springs, CO. The first 12 clients were taught self-care, basic living, and job skills by continuing to operate the lodge along with support from Cheyenne Village staff. Cheyenne Village was the first agency to be licensed by the Colorado Department of Health and Department of Social Services. Early on, Cheyenne Village became a nationally recognized and replicated model. Today, Cheyenne Village serves over 370 individuals with developmental disabilities living all across the Pikes Peak Region in a variety of locations including; apartments, host homes and group homes. OUR GOALS: Cheyenne Village has an impact on our community by achieving the following goals: • Provide safe and affordable housing and staff support in apartments, host homes, and group homes. • Teach basic skills so individuals can live as independently as possible. • Provide transportation for medical appointments, jobs, recreation, and other activities. • Maintain or improve the health of individuals served by Cheyenne Village. • Help enrich lives by encouraging volunteer and recreational activities. • Provide services to augment existing family or caregiver support.
