Our President and CEO Frances Salinas was one of the featured speakers on a panel discussion at this year's LeadingAge Annual Meeting!

The panel was called "Breaking Barriers: The Journey of Women to C-Suite Success." Frances did a great job sharing her story and the lessons she's learned in her career.

Way to go, Frances! We're proud to have you leading our team.

Our organization recently received national recognition in an article by Michele Holleran for McKnight's Senior Living!

Michele cited us as an example of a senior living community that is strategizing to meet the growing need and demand for brain health offerings for residents.

Thank you for the shoutout, Michele! We are excited to be on the cutting edge of this trend in our industry!

As life plan communities seek ways to differentiate themselves in competitive markets, brain health programs represent a unique opportunity to stand apart and offer a revolutionary approach to aging well.

We recently gathered to honor the many organizations that support our communities at our annual Corporate Partner Breakfast.

Members of the Wesley Willows Board of Directors and Leadership Team mingled with representatives from many of our Corporate Partners over a delicious breakfast prepared by our Dining Services Team.

Our Corporate Partnership Program currently consists of 48 generous organizations. These companies help us give over $1 million annually to seniors in need. We are so thankful to each of them for their support!

It's Advancement Appreciation Week at Wesley Willows, Peterson Meadows, and Highview in the Woodlands. We want to give a big shoutout and thank you to the hardworking team in our Advancement Department: Jeff Reinke and Natasha McNeal!

Jeff and Natasha devote their time to building connections with the Rockford-area community to raise money to support our residents. The money they raise supports residents who outlive their financial resources so that they can continue living in our communities.

Please join us in thanking Natasha and Jeff for all they do!
