Although we are living through a tumultuous time because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is also a time of incredible growth, hope and love. The Validation Training Institute global community has continued to show their generous support of Validation. During our Annual Fall Fundraiser in 2020 we came close to raising $20,000 and equally important – we grew our community. Our small, mainly volunteer team will continue to create high-quality new resources for caregivers of people who are living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias and with your continued support we can fulfill our mission of nurturing respect, dignity and well-being in the lives of older adults experiencing age-related cognitive decline.
