Valerie Hess is a Virtues Project International Association Board Member, Co-Chair of The Virtues Project International Development Fund and a Master Facilitator of The Virtues Project. Valerie  joyfully travels around the country and internationally facilitating workshops, training new facilitators, and provides coaching and consulting for parents, teachers, businesses and organizations.  Spreading The Virtues Project is my journey for the rest of my life.  I came to The Virtues project while  serving as Founder and Executive Director of Brilliant Stars, Inc., a nonprofit agency providing residential group homes for youth.  After launching three successful programs that spanned twenty years, I decided to go in a different direction, one that was more positive and uplifting and could make a much greater impact.  Valerie is the co-owner of Virtues Village LLC, a product and service company.  She brings 30 years of experience working with children and youth as a foster parent, day care provider, and administrator of three adolescent group homes and a transitional living program for youth.

Terry Rahn is the co-founder of Regalos LLC a for-profit organization which provides education, training and materials that promote The Virtues Project and foster family unity.  Terry is a Master Facilitator for The Virtues Project and travels globally conducting workshops and trainings for parents, educators, and business organizations.  She is also a registered nurse at her local community hospital.  Terry’s objective in life is to be of service to the world by sharing and teaching the strategies of The Virtues Project.  Terry has a Master of Arts in Education.
