The NALTCV’s mission is to: 1) Educate a volunteer workforce that improves care and quality of life in long-term care, 2) Coordinate with existing volunteer efforts, 3) Spotlight the value of volunteers, and 4) Research volunteer impact on quality of life.
Paul sits down with Isabella Solano, founder of Herralink, to explore how genuine friendship and intergenerational connection can change lives in long-term care. Real stories, real impact—and why volunteers become lifelines for those who feel unseen. naltcv.org/podcasts

What if half the people living in long-term care never get a single visitor? It’s true—and it’s heartbreaking. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.

One hour. One visit. One heart.

That’s all it takes to become someone’s lifeline.

As Mother’s Day approaches, I found myself reflecting not only on the many mothers who will be celebrated this weekend but the depth of love & sacrifice they bring to our world. To all mothers—those with us & those we hold in memory—thank you. You make the world a better place. Happy Mother’s Day.
