Hope & a Future Iii Inc

What it reported doing in 2025

Hope & a future currently operates a licensed adult family home that provides care to older adults with a wide variety of diagnoses and needs. Our adult family home is home to senior residents, staff, and sometimes the staff's children. Our pioneering model includes a live-in registered nurse and occupational therapist as well as hands on care givers who may have the option to receive room and board in exchange for helping with evening and weekend hours. This model helps to overcome the caregiver workforce crisis and gives seniors a stable staff while providing lower-income wage earners a stable home in the context of a family of friends caregiving model. All residents enjoy goal-directed living and the support of each other. The health and vigor of older adults improves after admission--even in the face of advancing disease and dementia. Residents flourish together. And when the end of life is near, we work with hospice allowing residents to remain in place, with their family of friends.in 2025 hope & a future enjoyed hundreds of volunteers and guests. Every summer we have work groups and outdoor events with music. We host monthly potlucks and house concerts. It is a joy to host events and offer community volunteer opportunities. This year 167 volunteers contributed 2147.25 hours (value at $74,703). We are very grateful! Hope & a future is moving forward with expansion plans. We are excited to see the completion of our pioneering theraputic interactive intergerational neighborhood (tiin) model. We are engaged in planning for the expansion of housing and services. We have contracts with architects, engineers, interior designers, and lawyers. We have required zoning and conditional use permits and we have applied for a building permit. We have a letter of intent to collaborate with a bilingual multicultural school to operate daycare, pre-k and after school programs. We are grateful to continue to benefit from many expert advisors, our skilled volunteer board of directors and capital campaign committee. Our timeline for building expansion is dependant on reaching our fundraising goal. We have made progress with fundraising although this effort continues. We are currently looking at potential collaborations for building and financing. Much of our support is grass roots and from family and friends of those who have used our services since 2002, their confidence in our work spurs us on!
