Supportive Community
The David Quarton Drop-in Center is a safe, welcoming place for adults in mental health recovery, who are looking for connection, support, and community.
Looking for something to do? Want to meet new people? Need a place where you can just be yourself?
Come Hang Out at Heartland!
As a part of the Denver community for over 30 years, Heartland Mental Health has a history of taking a community-centered approach to mental health. We believe healing happens through the friendships we build with people who have experienced their own mental health journeys, rather than going it alone.
The drop-in center provides that welcoming community of peers, where people often come for the activities and stay for the friends.
At Heartland, you can:
Connect with people who understand what you're going through
Join fun activities and learn new things
Relax and enjoy being part of a community
Enjoy a low-cost lunch on Tuesdays, or stop by for a cup of coffee anytime we’re open
Use a computer with free Internet access
Get out into the community on fun outings like hiking, bowling, or visiting the Denver Zoo; transportation is provided from Heartland

“Heartland treats me like a person. I am more than my mental diagnosis.”
“I used to have a program with shame, anger, rigidness. That has all relaxed away. It was the socialization piece that has really changed my life. Being around others like myself was the catalyst. ”
Need a Little Extra Support?
Our Peer Specialists are here to help you:
Find food, clothing, shelter, and healthcare
Navigate forms and applications
Connect with community resources
Receive support from someone who has lived experience
