Presbyterian Villages of Michigan’s History
Founded in 1945 by the Presbytery of Detroit, Presbyterian Villages of Michigan (PVM) is a faith-based, multi-site, 501(c)3 organization that serves seniors of all backgrounds. PVM became a freestanding, separate organization in 1989. Today, PVM serves over 7,500 older adults throughout the state via market rate and affordable housing, and home- and community-based services.
Michigan’s population of residents aged 65 and over is steadily increasing, and PVM is well-positioned, and wholeheartedly committed to keep our seniors in Michigan. In the past several years, PVM has made significant strides in accommodating today’s seniors while preparing for the needs of tomorrow.
Presbyterian Villages of Michigan, guided by our Christian heritage, serves seniors of all faiths and creates new possibilities for quality living. Each PVM Village throughout the state has a rich history and is paving the way for current and future Michigan seniors.
