National Church Residences is a not-for-profit charitable organization with assets of more than $700 million. In 1961, the Reverend John R. Glenn and four Ohio Presbyterian churches formed NCR out of a Christian commitment to serve older adults' housing, social, and human needs.

Bristol Village was NCR's first housing community. Over the years, Bristol Village has grown to meet a full range of lifestyle needs, including independent living in more than 400 individual homes, supportive services in an 82-unit apartment complex, a 25-unit assisted living facility, and skilled nursing care in a 50-unit convalescent center. In 2001, Bristol Gardens, a 12-unit Alzheimer's care retreat, was added to the campus.

Today, NCR's ministry provides affordable housing, health care, assisted living, and supportive services to modest-income seniors and families throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. Governed by a 24-member Board of Trustees comprised of a broad mix of people with professional, business, and human services backgrounds, NCRs ministry includes thousands of residents and employees nationwide.

NCR supports and is affiliated with several of the nation's leading senior, social and health care advocacy organizations.
