Villa St. Joseph was founded in 1997 as a ministry of the Sisters of St. Joseph. After 20 years of service to Beaver and Allegheny counties, the location joined the Concordia family in April 2018 - becoming Concordia at Villa St. Joseph and continuing its faith-based mission of serving others. Situated amidst the beautiful backdrop of nature, those in our care enjoy tranquil surroundings, yet are just minutes from restaurants, shopping, parks and more. We strive to hire excellent people at Concordia - and keep them as well!
