    Description
    Winter Growth, Inc.

    About Winter Growth

    Started in 1979, Winter Growth is an adult day program, memory care, assisted living, and respite care program rooted in independence, dignity, and life satisfaction.

    The unique, community-based, nonprofit model for seniors and adults with disabilities has been known as the place where friendships grow, care is extraordinary, and days are filled with engaging activities, exercise, laughter, and friends.


    Winter Growth has two locations:
    Columbia, MD and Olney, MD, each offering an intimate setting that feels like home and that provides several community-centered benefits, including:
    Services that are responsive to individual preferences, needs, and values
    A deeper opportunity for social connections and closer relationships with staff and others because residents see the same people every day
    Encouragement of independent mobility resulting from a one-story layout intentionally designed to be accessible for all to navigate
    Low staff-to-resident ratios, allowing nursing team members to spend more time caring for each individual
    Easily control the spread of viruses and other illnesses while also helping residents stay stronger longer
    Meals are provided and prepared onsite and served in a manner reminiscent of gathering around a family table

    Winter Growth has an annual operating budget of $5M, a staff of 80, and nearly 100 volunteers spread across two centers, caring for up to 47 overnight residents and up to 131 adult day program participants.

    The organization also enjoys support and engagement from a deeply committed Board of Directors who are long-time residents of Montgomery and Howard Counties and long-time supporters of Winter Growth.
