✨ Governance of CCRC/LifePlan Community

Do any other communities have committees focused on policy issues? We are a Life Plan Community of about 250 and for the past couple of years have had a "committee on life plan community issues" that attempts to identify emerging issues (both within our community and more widely) and collaborate with leadership and other orgs to find solutions. Some examples of our previous focus areas: resident bill of rights & responsibilities, financial education of residents, benevolent care, healthcare models within CCRCs. We are curious if anyone has a similar group and if so, would love to connect!

My community has an informal discussion group of about 20 regulars. It peaked at about 70 a couple of years ago. Some of us are very active in outside organizations like NaCCRA and our Pennsylvania Affiliate PARCR. In fact two of us serve as boad members, and a third volunteers with me on a task force considering how to modernize the PA statutes that pertain.

Our resident's association supports PARCR, but is not very active in PARCR or NaCCRA activities.

This forum is a good vehicle to use for communication with distant groups. In addition, NaCCRA can help members with tools like Zoom Meetings. I'm the person to contact. My phone is in the member directory.
