HOPES Inc
Welcome to the website for HOPES Inc.
HOPES was established 15 years ago to research and advance supported accommodation options for people with acquired disabilities and neurological conditions. It became an incorporated body in 1997, to assist with obtaining funding for the development of a co-operative living project, based on the needs and aspirations of potential residents.
Our good news is that we have finally been successful in obtaining access to 14 single storey units just north of Hobart, with plans already passed by council and building underway. Supported by the Tasmanian Housing Innovations Unit, we have been able to request some internal and access changes to make the units wheelchair accessible, and to convert one unit to a ‘common or multi-purpose’ house, with a second to be used for respite and transitional living.
Details of the project, site plan, and calls for expressions of interest can be found through the ‘projects’ link above, or the Quick Link “Laetare Court” on the left hand side.
