If you signed up for the Independent Living Program Interest List, here are your next steps:

• Once the interest list closes, the list of submissions will be randomized, and applicants will be contacted in this randomized order when an apartment home becomes available.
• When an apartment home becomes available, you will be contacted to start the full application and qualifying process, which includes a $19 application fee (per adult) and a $65 holding fee (per household).
• Remember to notify us, in writing, whenever you change your mailing address. You can find contact information for all BHP communities here. (Boulder Housing Partners is not responsible for lost or stolen mail.)

Thank you for your interest in the Independent Living Program at 30PRL!

All apartments at 30PRL feature amenities such as in-home washers & dryers, air-conditioning, and dishwashers, as well as community features such as free wi-fi, elevator access, and multiple community gathering rooms.    

Rent

For residents who qualify for 30PRL’s independent living program, rent is approximately 30% of the households’ gross income, as determined through the eligibility process.

Supportive Services

Residents of the independent living program will be eligible to receive optional support services from the Ramble Collective, which may include:

• Community engagement through optional organized outings or gatherings for activities within the common spaces of the Bluebell building.
• Optional access to a Community Liaison on an as-needed basis to help facilitate access to community resources. Boulder Treasures will also be available to assist with connections between residents taking part in the independent living program and can act as a liaison between resident households and their case management or family support networks.
• Optional facilitated discussions in collaboration with a resident's family support network and PASA case management services that will focus on maintaining the terms of the apartment lease to support current and future housing stability.
• 30PRL also features the Ramble Collective's Ramble Marketplace, a retail space with local Boulder-themed gifts, on the lower level of the Bluebell building.  Within Ramble Marketplace, the Ramble Collective offers an expansion of its job training apprentice program for qualified individuals within the Bluebell building and throughout Boulder County.
