Colligo- Co-l(ee) ̅-go- to gather, bring together, collect, to harvest, unify, unite, binding. 

This one word embodies the spirit and intent of this new organization-through which to collaborate and bring synergy to bend the future cost curve and consider the “next generation” ideas.

VISION
Be recognized as the catalyst for a new vision of aging

CORE PURPOSE
An authentic, partner-centered, learning community committed to one another

 

The Challenge

Senior living organizations desire to be viable, remain independent, and address the increasing number of complex disruptors with limited resources, while ensuring long-term financial success and excellent resident services.

 

The Realization

Current alternatives are not moving us forward. Associations provide advocacy, other memberships provide some value,  but not necessarily the leadership, tools, and rapid response to meet these challenges and industry disruptors, while strategically planning a way forward.  A new path forward is needed.

History

In 2018, work began creating a new model for independent, faith-based retirement communities and others to identify possible ways forward. Currently, six pioneering organizations formed The Colligo Group, and have begun the quest to tap into collective leadership and create long-term sustainability to better serve.
