Beth Cardillo, executive director of Armbrook Village is a pioneer in the Dementia community and it all comes from a place of wanting to help people have or find purpose. Born in New York City, Cardillo moved to Massachusetts with her family as a teenager. As her parents were activists, her first march was at the United Nations against nuclear-bomb testing when she was 3 years old — and she hasn’t stopped marching yet. She’s always learned to be a change maker in the world for equity and peace, to keep questioning authority, taking risks, trusting her intuitions, embracing change, and asking questions. While her work is her passion she other passions are family, friends, Kayaking, and traveling.
