UAW Senior Citizens Center Inc - Pekin, Illinois

I filled out an application at your Pekin location last year. The reason I was told I was not eligible was because of a felony crime that I was supposedly convicted of. I went in and explained that it wasn’t a felony, but a misdemeanor. The lady said I could apply next year.

I recently found out that because your organization receives government funding, you're not allowed to discriminate against me like that. My conviction was a misdemeanor from years ago, not a felony. Do you realize you're not allowed to do this?

You guys receive money from the government And you guys have no policies for misdemeanor convictions.

Always love coming to visit my aunt at the UAW Center building. It's a great place for her and it's convenient for her to live there also. They provide meals for her sometimes which is really nice and then they have different activities and events going on including a gift shop.

If u are the type to visit alot they will assume ur living there and alot of people that live their gossip alot. It's sad to say that you can't even visit with out someone accusing u of living and risking the chance of making someone lost there home. Just leave others alone and mind ur own dang business

Yes, it's an older building and is outdated and some floors are dark., I realize cosmetic renovation is costly. Like for instance, the appartments could be retrofitted with showers and walk-tubs, instead of great big huge bathtubs. The hallways smell old, smokey, and musty. Care has been given on all 16 floors to make sure there are comfortable chairs by the elevators. So residents can sit while while waiting for one of two elevators, which some times does take a while to get to your floor. But is a quick trip going down.. On each waiting area by the elevators sits 1 or 2 comfortable chairs., wall hangings and decorations keep each floor from being to generic... and has a home like feel. I have been impressed and I have to give credit to the staff! They do really care about the residents... and the care given to residents at this location is 1st class! The common areas are neat and clean. The outside sitting areas are very nice and pleasant. I'm very happy my mom is a resident at the UAW facility.

UAW does offer very, affordable apartments along with a cafeteria and laundry facilities. Personally, I would like to stipulate it is not assisted living for our precious, elderly family and friends. I will say they do seem to do the best they can in taking care of their elderly tenants but as I understand, this is not exactly part of their job qualifications. It seems at least one of the elevators is almost always out of service, which is of great concern for those who have difficulty walking and are unable to use the stairs. On the upside, for retirees looking for affordability and cozy accommodations it is pretty ideal. After all, this was the original intent of the UAW, once again as I understand it to be.
