FORT WORTH, TX— Civitas Senior Living, a Texas-owned and operated leader in senior care, is celebrating its 12th anniversary. Since 2012, Civitas’ unique model has proven to be an impactful and successful differentiator in the industry with 34 communities. Its locally operated communities intimately understand and prioritize the unique needs of their residents through signature programming, high dedication, and passionate care.
A Texas Story Rooted in Passion
Founded with the mission to redefine senior living and created by operators who are driven by a deep respect and love for older adults, Civitas has grown into a trusted name by consistently prioritizing the well-being and happiness of its residents.
Wayne Powell, Co-Founder and CEO, embodies the personal dedication at Civitas’s core. Raised by his grandparents, Wayne’s lifelong commitment to senior care began in high school and has driven Civitas to create vibrant, supportive communities for older adults. Civitas’ dedicated leadership team plays a crucial role in maintaining the company’s high standards.
This 12-year milestone celebrates the company’s growth and is a testament to its relentless dedication to cultivating a family-like atmosphere throughout its communities.
Creating Community Through Partnerships
One of Civitas Senior Living’s distinguishing features is its strong local partnerships. These collaborations enable Civitas to offer personalized, high-quality services that enrich the lives of its residents.

Local organizations, such as Select Rehabilitation, the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners (NCCDP), and most recently, Blue Bell Creameries, are partnerships that enrich Civitas’ programs, providing access to top-notch care, and bringing moments of joy to its residents.
