North Metro Community Services

What North Metro Community Services does

North Metro Community Services (NMCS) is a private non-profit organization founded in 1964 in Westminster, Colorado, that delivers community-based services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in Adams County. The organization operates as a designated Community Centered Board (CCB) and Medicaid provider, running a continuum of five interconnected service lines: Early Intervention (birth to age 3), Residential Services (Host Homes, Apartment Programs, Family Caregiver), Day Services (Supported Community Connections, Specialized Habilitation, Transportation), Support Services (SLS, CES), and the recently launched North Metro Home Health (accredited CNA-delivered in-home care). Service eligibility is determined by Rocky Mountain Human Services, the Case Management Agency for Adams County, after which NMCS delivers direct support through multiple delivery models including host family homes, apartments, family caregiver arrangements, and community-based day programs with 30+ daily transportation routes.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through Colorado Medicaid (Health First Colorado) waiver programs — Supported Living Services (SLS), Children's Extensive Services (CES), Developmental Disabilities Waiver (DD), and Community First Choice (CFC) — supplemented by state contracts with the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing and Adams County Mill Levy dollars ($250,000 annually to the SCC Activity Fund). A Grant Assistance Program, operated jointly with Adams County Board of County Commissioners and The Arc of Adams County, addresses family needs not covered by State or Medicaid funds. Operating from a Westminster headquarters and a Brighton satellite office, the organization employs 501-1000 staff including dedicated nursing personnel, program directors across each service line, and a recently restructured C-suite (CEO George Montoya, CFO Margarito Gandarilla, COO Robert Hunter, CHRO Jennifer O'Shea) installed in April 2025 after the 29-year tenure of founding-era CEO Randy Brodersen.

Core operational technology is the Therap electronic record and data-collection platform, deployed across all departments in late 2023 to replace paper-based documentation, with over 100 Support Partners trained on the system. There is no evidence of proprietary AI/ML capabilities or technology product development; the technology stack is functional/compliance infrastructure rather than a source of differentiation. The organization lost its Case Management service line in November 2023 due to Colorado's Conflict-Free Case Management transition and responded with the 2024 rebrand to 'New North Metro Community Services,' a refreshed leadership team, and the 2025 launch of the North Metro Home Health subsidiary.
