The Founder
Valerie Young envisioned a space to offer support for alternative, complementary, and integrative healing in the community.
The Foundation
In 2014, The Young Family Foundation received non-profit status as a private operating foundation to oversee Valerie Young’s house and land, to be named Valaterra.
The Land
Valaterra is located on over 100 acres of beautifully wooded valleys and spacious rolling fields in Oldham County, near Louisville, KY. Amidst some of the most forested property along Harrod’s Creek, connecting with the land is encouraged during your stay.
The Sanctuary
Valerie’s legacy is “The Living Sanctuary’, the gift of her house and land to be used as a place for healing retreats and workshops.
