Our History
​
The Inn Between of Longmont was established in 1993 out of the collective efforts of 23 community agencies looking to address homelessness in the St. Vrain Valley. Our founders recognized that there was a need for an agency that could provide both affordable housing and complementary Supportive Services to help local folks break the cycle of homelessness and build a brighter future.
Initially, The Inn operated under a parent agency, Family Extensions, and provided services to tenants in one building with 31 units. The agency received 501(c)(3) status in 1999. Over time, our community's need for affordable housing for very low-income families and support for those facing homelessness has grown.
​
With the help of our many supporters, The Inn Between has grown to include 88 units in six buildings around Longmont. In addition to a growth in our housing capacity, The Inn has developed new tools and resources overtime to meet the needs of our residents.
