EPAGA Home Care is a faith-inspired in-home care franchise offering non-medical personal support to seniors and individuals with disabilities. The name “EPAGA” comes from the Greek word Agapé, meaning unconditional love, reflecting the company’s mission to serve families with compassion.
Founded in 2007 in Kalispell, Montana, EPAGA began as a small local in-home care provider. The company has since expanded into a franchise system, with its first franchise location opening in Helena, Montana in 2021. EPAGA’s headquarters remain in Montana, and it continues to grow through franchising to bring its care model to new communities.
EPAGA franchises deliver a full range of non-medical home care services, including companionship, light housekeeping, personal care, respite care, nutritional support, incidental transport, medication reminders, and hospice support.
What sets EPAGA apart from many other home care franchises is its commitment to faith-based values, its focus on delivering joy in every client interaction, and its vision of franchisees as mission-driven community leaders.

Number of units
EPAGA Home Care had 3 total units in 2024, of which 1 were franchised-owned and 2 company-owned.
EPAGA Home Care provides structured and mandatory training programs to equip franchisees with the skills and knowledge required to operate their in-home care business. Here are the key training components:
Initial Training Program Franchisees and their designated personnel must attend an initial training session conducted at EPAGA’s headquarters or another designated location. This program lasts approximately five days and covers essential business operations, policies, and systems. Franchisees are responsible for all travel, lodging, meal expenses, and wages paid to personnel during this training.
Cost and Scope of Training The estimated cost for training ranges from $3,000 to $6,000, depending on travel choices and staff participation. This includes expenses such as transportation, accommodations, meals, and compensation during the training period. The program ensures that franchisees are adequately prepared to meet EPAGA's operational standards.
Ongoing Support While not explicitly broken out in the cost table, EPAGA provides continuing guidance and support following initial training. This includes access to scheduling software, marketing support, and regular operational updates. Franchisees are expected to maintain compliance with the training and operational requirements throughout their agreement term.
Territory Protection
EPAGA Home Care provides franchisees with a defined territory that is protected from internal competition. The franchisor agrees not to operate or license another EPAGA franchise within the assigned territory for the duration of the agreement, assuming the franchisee complies with all terms.
This protection is intended to support the franchisee’s ability to establish and grow a customer base without direct brand conflict. However, the territory protection is subject to conditions and limitations.
EPAGA retains the right to modify operational standards and assign different terms to other franchisees, which may affect contributions to shared advertising funds or promotional programs. Additionally, franchisees must meet performance expectations and remain compliant with system standards to maintain their territorial rights.
