For more than 45 years, Acts Retirement-Life Communities has met the retirement lifestyle and healthcare needs of older adults living in our communities. Our company began in 1971 with the vision of a church pastor and his congregation whose goal was to create an environment that offered seniors a rewarding lifestyle and high quality healthcare if ever needed. Today, Acts is the largest not-for-profit owner, operator and developer of continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs) in the United States. Our 23 communities currently serve approximately 9,700 residents in nine states. Our vision for Acts is to have The Acts Culture of Loving-Kindness be the basic fiber of our daily practice to meet the needs of those we serve. As we continue to grow, we are looking for dedicated and compassionate individuals to join our team who help to carry out our mission of serving older adults. We have been able to provide an unparalleled quality of life for our residents by recruiting and hiring great people who understand our vision and strive to be a part of it. We are convinced that the secret to our success is our employees who work as a team each day to make a positive difference in the lives of our residents. It is for this reason that we provide a working environment based on fair employment practices, competitive pay and benefits, career opportunities and other programs designed to help our employees achieve their professional goals.

Nuclear Threat Initiative Inc. released a first-of-its-kind, public baseline assessment of the status of nuclear materials security conditions in 176 countries. The NTI Nuclear Materials Security Index underscores that there is no global consensus about what steps matter most to secure some of the world's most dangerous materials against theft and recommends actions to hold countries accountable, increase transparency and benchmark progress. Released ahead of the March 2012 Nuclear Security Summit in Seoul, the NTI Index examines nuclear materials security conditions in 32 countries with one kilogram or more of weapons-usable nuclear materials, as well as in 144 additional states that have less than one kilogram of this material, or none, but could be used as safe havens, staging grounds or transit points for illicit nuclear activities. The report, NTI Nuclear Materials Security Index: Building a Framework for Assurance, Accountability and Action, was developed with the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), and assesses countries with weapons-usable nuclear materials across five categories: Quantities and Sites, Security and Control Measures, Global Norms, Domestic Commitments and Capacity, and Societal Factors. The 144 states without weapons-usable materials are assessed across a subset of these categories.
