Our Story

About PMR

We believe every person deserves a safe, affirming space to heal. PMR was built by and for the LGBTQIA+-affirming and allies community — because recovery looks different for all of us.

Founded 2022

Our History

PMR was founded in July 2022 with a clear vision: create a safe place in the LGBTQIA+-affirming and allies community for people recovering from mental health and addiction challenges. What began as a grassroots effort in Colorado Springs has grown into a full-service recovery organization serving individuals across the region. Today, PMR offers a continuum of care — from individual counseling and group therapy to sober living placement and peer support — all rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a chance to heal.
