“I couldn’t tell you where I would be if it wouldn’t have been for them,” said Barbara Chuppa, a client of Family Pride of NEO’s Senior Program.
“We saw there really being a need for being able to break down those barriers, and being able to have this welcoming person come to your home, where it’s more like having a cup of coffee with a friend than going to a doctor’s office or trying to find transportation to find help,” said director of communications for the ADAMHS Board of Lake County, David Schick.
For Chuppa, her case manager, Jessica Humphrey, has become a best friend. One that was able to pull her from her darkest place. “I didn’t go anywhere, I didn’t do anything,” said Chuppa. “I barely talked to anybody on the phone. I didn’t want to be bothered. I just wanted to be left alone. And now, that’s the furthest thing from my mind.”She’s going to her daughter’s for thanksgiving and even decorated already for Christmas.If you think you or a loved one would benefit from Family Pride of NEO’s Senior Program, call 440-286-1553.
