The Hope Apartments provides 31 accessible units for people with disabilities who live on a limited income. Those residents are now searching for hard-to-find accessible housing because the building might be repurposed and they were told to vacate by July.
GREELEY — Deb Walters’ home in Hope Apartments provides everything a 64-year-old living with cerebral palsy needs — a roll-in shower, a bed lift, aides to cook and clean, proximity to a grocery store, a nearby bus stop and a bike path she can use to drive her motorized wheelchair to a park.
Peters said he never has received a clear explanation as to what repurposing the building means or what Adeo plans to do with the site. Hope Apartments resident Doug Peters, 60, heads back to his room from the room at the building in Greeley on Friday, Jan. 20, 2023. The nonprofit ran in the black in 2019 with most of its revenue coming from the services it offered, according to its most recent tax filing available in the IRS database. That year, the agency’s total revenue was $4.2 million, and it finished the year with $105,957 on the books, Adeo’s Form 990, the tax document filed by nonprofits, showed.
Cassidy saw young people in wheelchairs living in nursing homes because they had no other place to go, so she founded the apartments to provide them somewhere to live independently. She also created a campus for people with brain injuries called Stephens Farm, which is still run by Adeo. And she built a warm water therapy pool for the agency’s clients.When Machina and her brother, Rob Cassidy, received word about the changes at Hope Apartments, they were surprised.
Walters’ aides arrive around 5 a.m. to help her out of bed and get her dressed for the day. They cook her meals and feed her. They bathe her and clean her apartment. Then they return around 4 p.m. to help her get in bed, where she is fed her evening meal.
