Village to Village Network

Village to Village Network (VtVN) is a small non-profit organization based in St. Louis, Missouri. With five employees, the organization focuses on empowering communities to create and manage their own "Villages" – grassroots, community-based non-profits aimed at supporting older individuals. VtVN's primary service is providing the framework and support for communities to establish these Villages. They assist in coordinating services and building networks that enable older adults to maintain their independence and active participation within their communities. VtVN's collaborative approach is built on cooperative principles, emphasizing local ownership and control over the support systems designed for older residents. This grassroots model allows Villages to tailor services to the specific needs and preferences of their communities.
