We’re excited to welcome our Opening Keynote, Bob Kramer, for A New Narrative About Aging at !

This keynote challenges outdated narratives around aging and senior living and explores how operators can meet rising acuity needs while reshaping how older adulthood is understood and experienced.

Bob will share how communities can reposition themselves as “next stage living,” not “end stage living,” and build a stronger, more compelling brand for both seniors and the families influencing their decisions.

Last week, ORCA's Board of Directors and leadership team gathered for two days of strategic planning focused on the future of our Association and Ontario’s retirement living sector.

Together, we explored emerging opportunities, discussed key priorities, and identified ways to continue supporting our members while enhancing the lives of the seniors they serve.

Thank you to our Board Members for their time, insight, and dedication throughout a productive and engaging session. We're excited to build on this momentum as we shape ORCA's next chapter.
