NaCCRA Web Site

http://www.naccra.com

We've rearranged some items to try to make the website more user friendly.  If you are looking for items that previously were in the Library or Governance Sections, they are now most likely under CCRC Living. Material on NaCCRA meetings is now under the News heading.

Click here for the Index Page if you prefer.

You can always use the Index Page to find items. The Index is a new feature that we've added to provide an alternative to the drop down menus for those who prefer a simple mouse click (or touch on an iPad).  We'll try to keep both consistent and coordinated but we're only human..

Understanding, Not Advocacy

The aim is to let residents, and others who are interested, learn.  The hope is to try to present all points of view and all alternative understandings so that residents can think for themselves and make up their own minds according to their own personal values.

As such we do not advocate policies but instead seek to illuminate all sides of issues and all alternatives so that informed people can make better choices.
