CELEBRATING THE SPIRIT
When Daniel first joined United Church
Homes, he had a discussion with staff, resi-
dents and their family members about re-
branding the company. The theme from such
discussions, “Celebrating the Spirit,” helped
re-focus their efforts as a provider that evokes
the spirit of community and friendly atmo-
sphere. It is that “community environment
and atmosphere that makes us stand out in
the crowd,” Daniel explains.
