Community Health Partnership (Chp)

Community Health Partnership (CHP), doing business as Changeline, is a Colorado Springs–based tax-exempt nonprofit that serves as a prime recipient of federal grants for homelessness and behavioral health services in the Pikes Peak region, with a smaller footprint of sub-recipient work flowing through Colorado state agencies. The organization operates exclusively in the federal grant space — no federal contracts — and has built 65% of its federal award portfolio as a direct grant recipient from HUD and the Department of Health and Human Services.

CHP's federal footprint is heavily concentrated in HUD's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The organization has received at least thirteen CoC project grants from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development since 2021, including recent awards of $205,782 (December 1, 2025 through November 30, 2026), $129,359 (November 1, 2025 through October 31, 2026), and $177,164 (December 1, 2024 through November 30, 2025). Under these grants, CHP delivers permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing for homeless individuals and families, transitional housing, case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment, job training, rental assistance, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) infrastructure. The organization also provides homelessness prevention, housing counseling, landlord engagement, and specialized services for persons fleeing domestic violence and youth ages twenty-four and younger. CoC awards account for 26 of 40 total federal awards and represent the vast majority of CHP's obligated dollars ($4.6 million combined).

HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development accounts for 98% of CHP's award count, with 26 awards documented. Secondary grant work flows from the Department of Health and Human Services — the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration — in the form of sub-recipient funding through Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment primes. These sub-awards support the Colorado Comprehensive Suicide Prevention Initiative, CDC PHHS Preventive Block Grant funding, and emergency response initiatives for suicide prevention and domestic violence support. Award activity has grown from three awards in 2022 to ten in 2024, though 2025 and 2026 show a contraction to five and two awards respectively. Only two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure.
