The Good Shepherd Community is a nonprofit organization based in Sauk Rapids, Minnesota, serving families in the greater St. Cloud and central Minnesota area. It offers assisted living and senior care facilities designed to be functional and aesthetically pleasing, with a focus on creating a home-like environment for residents and tenants while supporting its mission of senior adult ministry aligned with its values of service, trust, compassion, and respect. The organization emphasizes addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of adults at all stages of aging through its staff and volunteers, aiming to provide a safe, healthy, and fulfilling life for those in its care whether they reside on site or in their own homes. Its work is supported in part by charitable contributions from businesses and individuals, with a foundation that collaborates with staff and volunteers to enhance residents' sense of home. A recent development noted is a partnership announced in 2020 with the Alzheimer's Association, reflecting collaboration to increase awareness and support related to the disease.
