As a provider of senior living solutions, Unitas Communities develops a full spectrum of senior living housing options for residents to benefit from maintenance-free living. Housing options include apartments, townhouses, cottages, and carriage homes that come with resort-style amenities such as restaurants, transportation, housekeeping, laundry services, and security. Social programs for residents are created for the sense of “community” while having their own private living space. 

Additionally, Unitas Communities provides residents with a full continuum of healthcare services, including assisted living, personal care, memory care, nursing care and short-term rehabilitation. This enables residents to age in place, while receiving all of the health and wellness services they need in a trusted community and familiar surroundings.  

Each Unitas affiliate maintains its own distinct corporate identity, operating independently in both financial and legal matters. Together, they benefit from shared resources and services, levering collective strengths and securing their long-term viability.

Deciding on your next steps in life is a significant milestone. Many individuals choose to involve family and friends in this important decision, while others prefer to navigate this journey independently. Regardless of where you find yourself on this path, Unitas affiliates are here to provide tailored solutions to meet your needs. 

We invite you to explore our affiliate communities, Moravian Manor Communities and Morningstar Living and discover the extensive range of offerings available to support your lifestyle and well-being.

About Unitas

As a family of faith-based, not-for-profit Life Plan Community serving seniors, Unitas Communities is focused on the Moravian Church’s emphasis on living its motto: “In essentials, unity, in non-essentials liberty, and in all things love.”

The organization was established in 2023 to serve as a parent company when Moravian Manor Communities and Morningstar Living formed a strategic affiliation, under which shared services and future endeavors will be developed. The name Unitas comes from the Moravian heritage, with the Moravian Church officially known as Unitas Fratrum (Unity of Brethren) since 1457.

The mission, vision, values, and philosophy of care and service of its communities are based upon building strong and respectful relationships between residents and staff, as well as with the families, friends of the residents, and clients we serve.

Each member organization under Unitas Communities maintains its own separate corporate identity and operates separately both financially and legally, while sharing key services and resources. This allows the communities to capitalize on shared strengths and secure their future.
