About Friendship Retirement Community

Friendship provides a friendly, safe, and comfortable place for our residents to live healthier, fuller lives. From our thriving Independent Living communities to the recovery expertise of Friendship Health, we founded Friendship to offer our community the resources and support they need to live better.

In a time when 4-in-5 residential care facilities are run by for-profit companies, Friendship, as a non-profit, continues to strive to invest profits back into our communities and to focus on being a good neighbor. We’re grateful for the awards we’ve won for our service. We’re proud of how we’ve expanded to multiple campuses in the Roanoke area. But the most valuable reward for our work is observing how each of our residents lives better.

With every smile, every step, and every celebration of a new day, we’re thrilled at how far Friendship has come—and we can’t wait to show you what’s next.
