All Roads, formerly the Boulder Shelter for the Homeless, has confirmed it will likely reduce the shelter’s overnight capacity by 20 beds starting in April 2025. The announcement comes just a few months after the shelter expanded its nightly capacity from 160 to 180 beds. The shelter, located at 4869 Broadway, historically upped its capacity to 180 beds only on critical weather nights, but the shelter permanently added an extra 20 beds this summer after adding more staff and expanding into offering daytime services. At its former capacity of 160 beds, the shelter has frequently turned people away due to reaching capacity. The move appeared to be driven by major funding cuts from the county. In early October, county commissioners announced $4 million in cuts to grant funding for human services nonprofits. The cuts add up to about a $300,000 reduction in funding for All Roads’ emergency sheltering operations in 2025. “In the greater scheme of things, it is only 3% of our overall budget. But it is nearly 15% of our housing-focused shelter budget (what we use to operate the building itself, and services inside it intended to move people out of homelessness),” All Roads CFO Sandy Halin-Adams wrote in an email. She said the county has been and continues to be a “generous partner” but that the cut “still comes with real, human impact.” Get more Colorado news by signing up for our daily Your Morning Dozen email newsletter.
