Welcome

NU-HOPE Elder Care Services, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated helping seniors to remain in their own homes and avoid/delay nursing home placement. We offer a variety of in-home, nutrition, and support services available at no-cost or for a low sliding-scale fee. Funding for our programs is obtained primarily through grants, fundraisers, and community donations.

We understand the importance of ‘home’ and the value of neighborhoods, friends and family. Through our services, thousands of seniors have received the assistance that they needed to safely remain in their own homes and stay connected to the communities they love.

Agency Update

In 2025, NU-HOPE will turn 50!

Join us as we spend this next year honoring our past and shaping our new future…

As NU-HOPE approaches its 50th anniversary, the organization is launching a year-long initiative to raise awareness about the issues seniors and caregivers face and explore how the community can become more supportive. Each month, NU-HOPE will spotlight a different issue related to aging. NU-HOPE will also host meetings with community groups, leaders, and government officials to discuss these critical issues, gather feedback, and build stronger partnerships.

“Community engagement is crucial,” Slade emphasizes. “We want to hear from local leaders and citizens about their experiences. This feedback will help us develop strategies and policies that truly address the needs of our aging population.”

Breaking Down Barriers and Expanding Resources

NU-HOPE is also dedicated to removing barriers that prevent seniors and caregivers from accessing essential services. Whether these obstacles are physical, financial, or social, NU-HOPE is committed to overcoming them. “We know there’s a need to improve access to transportation. Lately, we’ve heard a lot about the need for better mental health support, access to technology, and personalized training to help seniors stay connected in the digital age. We also see the value in increasing intergenerational activities.”

A Community Call to Action

As NU-HOPE celebrates its 50th anniversary, the organization isn’t just looking back—it’s also looking forward. The anniversary is a call to action for the entire community—individuals, businesses, and organizations—to join in this vital mission.

“We’re committed to building a community where every senior and caregiver feels valued and supported,” Slade says. “As we celebrate this milestone, we’re inviting everyone to be part of a movement that will transform lives. Together, we can create communities where people of all ages and abilities are supported, and where no senior is left behind.”

“We’re proud of what NU-HOPE has achieved in our first 50 years, but the needs of seniors, caregivers, and our community are always evolving. We’re ready to work hard to meet these changes head-on. It’s our goal to collaborate with our community to make the next 50 years even better than the first. We hope everyone will join us in this effort. Together, we can build a future where no one has to face aging or caregiving alone.”
