Colorado is in the middle of one of its most serious substance use crises. Fentanyl-related overdose deaths have climbed sharply across the Front Range since 2020, and rural and frontier Colorado — from the Western Slope to the Eastern Plains to the San Luis Valley — continue to face significant treatment access deserts. In dozens of Colorado counties, there is one MAT provider, or none, within a reasonable drive of where patients live.
Porch Light Health was built to close that gap. Our Colorado-licensed clinical team has worked in addiction medicine in this state for years. We operate more than 20 fixed clinic locations across the Front Range and Western Slope, mobile treatment units serving frontier communities from Steamboat Springs to the southern San Luis Valley, and a statewide telehealth program that meets patients where they are. We accept Health First Colorado (Medicaid), Medicare, and most major commercial plans, and you don't need a referral to get started.
If you or someone you love is searching for evidence-based addiction care in Colorado, we're here — close to home, medically grounded, and built for how this state actually lives.
Here at Porch Light Health, we empower our clients to break free from the chains of addiction with our proven treatment methodologies. Our holistic strategy melds Medication for Addiction Treatment (MAT) with behavioral health initiatives, crafting a recovery path that addresses both the physical and emotional aspects of addiction.
We recognize the profound impact addiction can have, and Porch Light Health is committed to providing a pathway to a life beyond addiction. With an impressive 80% of our patients reporting an enhanced quality of life post-recovery, our dedication to making a significant difference in the lives of those we serve is unwavering.
As addiction remains a leading cause of death for Americans under 50, it calls for a response that is both caring and effective. Porch Light Health is prepared to stand beside you, offering treatments grounded in evidence, a supportive community, and a network of professionals devoted to your recovery journey.
Our MAT programs are a critical support system for individuals on their recovery path. Understanding the vital role these medications play in treating substance use disorders, we ensure our treatment plans are comprehensive and personalized. Here’s a look at the key medications we employ:
Our integrated use of these medications, alongside counseling and behavioral therapies, forms the core of Porch Light Health’s holistic treatment philosophy. Addressing addiction’s physical and emotional dimensions, we have a comprehensive path to recovery that respects the individuality of each person’s journey.
The dedicated team at Porch Light Health is committed to navigating each patient through their recovery with compassion, expertise, and an in-depth understanding of MAT’s transformative potential.

What can I do if there isn't a clinic near me?
We designed our care around three connected options so distance doesn't have to be a barrier. You can visit one of our in-person clinics, connect with a mobile treatment unit serving rural and frontier communities, or receive care through our statewide telehealth program. Many patients are able to begin with a video visit from home.
Is treatment only for opioid addiction?
No. While our MAT programs are central to opioid recovery, our team supports individuals facing a range of substance use challenges. We pair MAT with behavioral health support, including counseling and case management, to address both the physical and emotional sides of addiction.
Who do your programs serve?
We tailor care to people at different stages of life and from different communities, including teens, adults, and seniors. We also offer dedicated support for veterans, the LGBTQIA+ community, BIPOC individuals, and first responders.
