The Stella is located on the campus of Laradon, a nonprofit that empowers children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities through programs and services. In 2019, The Elisabetta opened on Laradon’s campus. With the addition of The Stella, there are now 223 affordable apartments between the two complexes.Doug McNeill, CEO of Laradon, knows it can be difficult for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to find housing.
Laradon will assist individuals with IDD, who qualify under Denver Housing Authority, to find housing. Funding for The Stella comes from partners like the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority and the City and County of Denver Economic Development Office.“In our five-year plan for affordable housing, we need to see 7,000 homes built here in Denver in the next five years,” said Britta Fisher, Executive Director of Denver’s Department of Housing Stability.
