About us

Brooks-Howell is a non-profit, faith-based continuing care senior living community. We provide Independent Living, Long and Short-term Skilled, and Respite services. Conveniently located near downtown Asheville, NC, our campus sprawls over almost 10 acres encompassing many nature trails and gardens.

Originally established to provide a retirement community for United Methodist deaconesses and missionaries, we’ve now evolved into a diverse community that welcomes clergy and spouses, and service personnel from other denominations.

Because we have served globally and extend outreach locally, we are a diverse group of individuals who live collectively in faith. We value the gifts and experience that each resident and staff member contributes to our community. We’re known for how we welcome all that step into our community.
