Awards
- Innovator Award
The International Council on Active Aging (ICAA) presented Touchmark with this prestigious award in 2010. The award recognized Touchmark’s 20in10 … 20 Tips to Wellness You Can Do in 10 Minutes program, which sought people’s suggestions about how they could experience wellness in less than 10 minutes several times a day. The program was developed to coincide with Touchmark’s 30th anniversary and expand awareness of all seven dimensions of wellness (social, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, vocational, and environmental). Touchmark was one of five companies selected for the ICAA Innovator Award. View the Media Release here. - Let Your Spirit Soar campaign
