ORANJ Shares Insights into Life Plan Communities

As we first reported here almost a year ago, the segment of the senior living community traditionally identified as “Continuing Care Retirement Communities” or CCRCs is working on rebranding. Under the leadership of the trade organization LeadingAge, the preferred name is Life Plan Communities.

ORANJ, the catchy acronym for the very active Organization of Residents Associations of New Jersey, publishes quarterly newsletters and their Fall 2016 issue includes demographic and marketing reasons behind the name change.  The issue includes an essay by Brian Lawrence, President and CEO of Fellowship Senior Living on Why and How Life Plan Communities Are Evolving.
