La Casa De Esperanza

La Casa De Esperanza is a DSHS-licensed adult family home at 1637 Grandview Pl in Ferndale, Whatcom County (license #757146), licensed to care for up to 3 residents at a time. Adult family homes sit between independent living and a nursing home: a licensed caregiver looks after a small number of residents in an actual house, providing meals, help with daily tasks, medication management, and round-the-clock supervision in a setting that still feels like home.

It is licensed for mental-health support, caring for adults whose needs go beyond physical care — including mood, anxiety, and other psychiatric conditions — within a stable, closely-supervised household. It is licensed to serve adults with developmental disabilities, providing daily support tailored to each resident's abilities in a stable, long-term home rather than a rotating institutional placement.

La Casa De Esperanza accepts Medicaid (Washington Apple Health) and COPES funding for residents who qualify, which means a placement here need not depend entirely on private savings — a real consideration for care that often runs for years. It is one of 5 licensed adult family homes in Ferndale listed on Dear Care Home, so if the fit or timing isn't right you can compare neighbors in the same city below.
