Since 1977, the Ontario Retirement Communities Association (ORCA) has been the voice of Ontario’s retirement communities, representing more than 90 per cent of all licensed retirement community suites in Ontario, employing 30,000 front line workers and caring for over 63,000 seniors who choose to call retirement communities their home.
ORCA’s membership also includes over 220 commercial partners who provide essential products and services to retirement communities throughout the province.
For almost 50 years, ORCA has been committed to providing our members with first-class education and training through our learning platform, The Learning Centre for Senior Living, and advocating for a strong and prosperous retirement community sector by collaborating with government and other stakeholders.
