Brightview Senior Living was created by The Shelter Group, a privately-held company that was founded in 1977. The Shelter Group developed, managed, and owned residential real estate, specializing in multi-family and senior living communities. In 2018, The Shelter Group was renamed Brightview Senior Living, a reflection of our singular focus on creating vibrant senior living communities.
