A unique opportunity arose when the former Adams County Children and Family Center was vacated. On November 13, 2018, the Adams County Board of County Commissioners formally approved an agreement to donate the land and the former Adams County Children and Family Center to Maiker Housing Partners. Maiker Housing then repurposed the existing office building into 44 units of affordable housing and added another 72 affordable units. Community amenities include a fitness room, roof deck, dog park, and playground. Twelve of the 116 mixed-income units are dedicated for youth aging out of foster care.
