VALA serves as Virginia's state affiliate of the Assisted Living Federation of America.
| WELCOME TO VALA! | |
VALA is a non-profit membership organization dedicated to providing advocacy, communication, education, and resources to the assisted living industry in Virginia. Formed in 1996, we are the unified voice of assisted living in Virginia and the official state affiliate of the Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA). Our members represent the entire spectrum of the industry: providers of both non-profit and for-profit, and large and small assisted living homes. We also welcome Industry Partners - companies, government agencies and individuals that provide a service to, or have an interest in, assisted living in Virginia.
A Time of Change: Right now is a time of tremendous change for assisted living in Virginia. Many forces are influencing the future of the rapidly growing alternative for Virginia seniors: During this time of transformation, the assisted living industry in Virginia faces an enormous challenge: How can providers "stay ahead of the curve" on issues affecting the future of assisted living while maintaining a focus on what is important today - providing quality, affordable, home-like alternatives to current residents? VALA is a state affiliate member of ALFA, the Assisted Living Federation of America. As an affiliate VALA works with ALFA on issues impacting our industry nationwide and follow their lead with the federal government. ALFA also keeps us updated on developments in others states. You can join ALFA directly, giving you access to all the benefits they have to offer, by going to their website at www.alfa.org. *************** VALA Diamond Awards Help VALA recognize those individuals and companies who are doing their best to serve Virginia's assisted living community.
