Men’s recovery center STEP Springs to open Tuesday in Colorado Springs

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – There will soon be a new resource for men battling addiction and homelessness in the Pikes Peak region. STEP Springs is set to open at its new Colorado Springs facility on Tuesday.
This program is a new branch of one already established in Denver, and many of the employees in the Springs said they have gone through it themselves.
Andre Podpolucha is acting as the director of operations for the facility, and he, himself, said he got help from the program in Denver.
“Prior to all this, I was living under a bridge in Englewood. I was homeless for about a year and a half. And I burnt every bridge that I had,” Podpolucha said, “so I had nowhere else to turn.”
