The formal affiliation of two of California’s leading nonprofit providers of senior housing and services has been approved by state regulators. ABHOW and be.group have officially combined operations to create California’s largest nonprofit senior living provider and the sixth largest in the nation.
“Our unified organization will have greater strength, scale and resources to meet the changing needs of a growing senior living market," says John Cochrane, who will lead the new organization as its president and CEO. ABHOW’s former CEO, Dave Ferguson, will transition into an advisory role.
“We strongly believe that this affiliation will benefit those we serve and seek to serve, and help us to remain competitive in an increasingly challenging environment,” Cochrane says.
The unified company now supports 10,000 residents in 84 communities across California, Arizona, Nevada, Oklahoma, Idaho and Washington. Grand Lake Gardens is excited to see our family grow and is looking forward to the future.
