A CCRC differs from other retirement options by providing a continuum of housing, services and health care. There is a written agreement between the resident and the CCRC and is generally intended to last the resident's lifetime or for a specific period.

The CCAC was founded in 1985 to provide standards of excellence and a means of protecting consumers.
