Reviewers frequently praised the program's focus on co-occurring disorders and the supportive, experienced staff, many of whom were described as being in recovery themselves. The 90-day duration and the program's effectiveness in addressing core issues were also highlighted as strengths. However, some reviewers criticized the food, sleeping accommodations, and limited amenities, noting the facility's nature as a state-run institution with restricted funding.

According to a <a href="https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdhs/news/cdhs-reopen-circle-program-pueblo-0" target="_blank">late 2018 statement by the CDHS</a>, the Circle Program had been temporarily closed to “relocate the $2 million-per-year program from the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo (CMHIP) into the community.” The same source notes that <strong>clients are no longer required to have inpatient hospital status</strong> (as was the case when the Circle Program was housed by CMHIP) to access treatment.</p> <p><a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/CO17.pdf" target="_blank">One of just 41 (10.8 percent of) programs that offers more than 90 days of residential treatment</a>, the high-intensity program requires that prospective clients have <a href="http://crossroadstp.org/pics/2018/circle/5.%20MEDICAL%20CLEARANCE.pdf" target="_blank"><strong>medical clearance from a physician</strong></a>. The form states that they must be medically stable, not need to leave for the entirety of treatment, and be <strong>both willing and able to participate in 40 hours of group each week</strong>.
