Project NameStorm is a joint initiative of LeadingAge and Mather LifeWays, in partnership with Brooks Adams Research, GlynnDevins, Love & Company, SB&A Integrated Marketing, and Varsity (the NameStorm Task Force). The purpose of this initiative is to identify a new name for the overall Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) brand category that positions CCRCs in a better way for future consumers and builds relevancy in people’s minds.
