History
Ecumen began as a Lutheran social services agency in 1862, providing foster care services to children orphaned in the Dakota Conflict. By the early 20th century had it become a full-time operator of senior housing and services in Minnesota.
The company has been known under several different names throughout its history. In 1876 it became the Board of the Society of Mercy. In 1923 it became the Board of Christian Service, and 1962 it was named the Board of Social Ministry. Finally, in 2004 it became Ecumen, from the Greek word oikos, meaning "home".
In 2003, Kathryn Roberts, who had formerly been the executive director of the Minnesota Zoo, was named president and CEO.[2] Due to America's demographic shift, Roberts has directed Ecumen's growth, including expansion of residential housing and services outside of Minnesota to Wisconsin, North Dakota and Idaho, as well as the launch of a senior housing development division that operates nationally.[3] Ecumen has also moved into new services, including digital health technology[4] and specialized residential housing and services to serve people who deal with behavioral challenges caused by Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
