(8-9-23) The Adams County Commissioners , Stan Stoppenhagen, District 1, Steve Bailey, District 2 and Steve Kuhn, District 3 voted 3-0 yesterday to begin the process of closing the Golden Meadows Home.

Golden Meadows Home is a non-profit, Residential Care Facility located in Adams County, Indiana. Our residents live at Golden Meadows Home for a variety of reasons. All need extra help and support that is provided by our caring staff. We currently have 25 residents. All of these people have physical and/or mental disabilities, and are among the most economically disadvantaged people in our community. Our residents have ranged in age from 18 to 95 years old. Their needs are varied according to the extent of their disability. Some residents work part-time in the community, some help out around the home, and some are in retirement mode.

The Commissioners decided that Golden Meadows will close, based on a recent study of the facility and the cost involved in continuing to operate the facility.

Around 20 people still reside at Golden Meadows.

Golden Meadows is one of only 8 left in operation in the state of Indiana’s 92 counties.

No date for the closing of Golden Meadows has been decided but hope it can happen within the next 12 months.
