2013 Rockefeller Award Winners
Nancy Cipoletti doubled the number of staff members when she joined the Alzheimer's Association, Southern West Virginia Chapter as part-time Executive Director in the spring of 1990. Over the next 10 years, Nancy quickly expanded the Chapter's capacity. In 2001, as the 3 Alzheimer's Association chapters in West Virginia merged, Nancy helped the newly formed organization expand their programatic reach as Program Director. She continues to serve those facing this devastaing disease as Director f Alzheimer's Programs for the Bureau of Senior Services.
Jane Marks took the helm of the newly formed Alzheimer's Association, West Virginia Chapter in 2001. After 12 years leading the Alzheimer's Association, West Virginia Chapter, Jane will retire as Executive Director in June of this year. Over these years, Jane led significant advancements in public policy, training and education and expanded the capacity of the Association's programs and services. Jane worked tirelessly to carry out the mission of the Association. We can't think of a more fitting tribute to someone that we have leaned on for so many years.
