After 24 years of transforming lives on St. Maarten and around the world, the St.
Maarten–based foundation opens a single digital home for counselling, coaching, wellness,
education, and a tiered membership that puts grants, health resources, and courses within
everyone’s reach.
GREAT BAY- ST. MAARTEN — Victorious Living Foundation (VLF), a registered Caribbean
non-profit that has served individuals, families, and organisations since 2002, today announced
the launch of its fully redesigned website at victoriouslivingfoundation.com. The new site brings
VLF’s full spectrum of services — counselling, coaching, training, publishing, e-learning,
professional development, and wellness — together in one warm, easy-to-navigate destination,
and debuts a new VLF Membership Community that makes the Foundation’s most valuable
resources accessible to members at home and around the world.
“For more than two decades, our work has been about meeting people where they are and
walking with them toward wholeness,” said Dr. Nicole E. Francis Cotton, President and Founder
of Victorious Living Foundation. “The new website and membership community are the digital
expression of that mission — a place where someone on St. Maarten or anywhere in the world
can find counselling, coaching, grant opportunities, and wellness resources, and feel they
belong from the very first click.”
A New Digital Home for Healing, Growth, and Transformation
The redesigned VLF website was built around a simple promise reflected in its banner — Live
Victoriously. Heal. Grow. Thrive. Visitors now move effortlessly between the Foundation’s eight
program areas, with clear pathways to the support they need:
- Counselling Services — individuals, couples, and family therapy, including marriage
counselling, grief support, trauma therapy, and domestic violence intervention. - Training & Consultancy — professional workshops, organisational consulting, leadership
development, mediation, and accredited program support. - Coaching Services — life, Enneagram-based, and relationship coaching designed to
unlock personal potential. - E-Learning — a catalogue of 50+ self-paced courses, including evidence-based grief
counselling, suicide prevention, and wholistic health certification. - Professional Development — a curated Learn-menu hub, bringing licensed clinicians,
educators, and coaches access to world-class continuing-education conferences and
certifications. - Publishing & Books — Victorious Living Publishing’s growing catalogue of Caribbean
authors, plus workshops that help new writers bring their stories to print. - Retreats — restorative experiences designed to help individuals and groups reconnect,
reflect, and renew. - Wellness — innovative wellness technology through SuperPatch and the IWH Health
Hub, bringing whole-person health resources to the community.
Spotlight: Professional Development & the 2026 Child & Adolescent Mental
Health Conference
A standout addition is the new Professional Development section under the Learn menu — a
curated hub built around the promise to Equip. Certify. Elevate. Through affiliate partnerships
with trusted continuing education providers, beginning with PESI, a recognised leader in mental
health training, VLF provides therapists, educators, coaches, and parents with access to world-
class conferences, certifications, and training. New offerings are added regularly, with two
conferences currently featured.
First is the 2026 ADHD Conference, held live online on July 22–23, 2026. Across two
intensive days, 17 leading experts address the complexities, controversies, and emerging
research around ADHD — spanning hormones, suicide risk, couples and ADHD, AI tools,
perfectionism, classroom equity, and the full adult lifespan. Attendees can earn up to 30 CE
hours and receive a complimentary ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-
CCSP) certification — a $299.99 value — with a 30-day on-demand replay included.
Also featured is the 2026 Child & Adolescent Mental Health Conference, personally
recommended by Dr. Nicole E. Francis Cotton and held live online on August 5–6, 2026. Over
two days, 11 leading clinicians — including keynote speaker Mona Delahooke, PhD — share
evidence-based strategies for the issues young people face most, from trauma and
attachment to anxiety, autism, generational wounds, and the pressures of growing up in a digital
world. Attendees can earn up to 18 CE hours, receive a complimentary Certified Youth
Mental Health Specialist (CYMHS) credential, and access a 30-day on-demand replay — all
from anywhere in the world.
The launch also spotlights upcoming community moments, including the official book launch of
In Emilio Wilson Park with Uncle Joe by veteran educator Oswald Francis on July 19, 2026, and
a free Couples Counselling masterclass on June 29, 2026, highlighting new insights into ending
abusive relationships.
Introducing the VLF Membership Community
At the heart of the relaunch is the new VLF Membership Community, now open for enrollment.
Built on the principle of “Start free. Grow as you go,” the program turns VLF’s resources into an
ongoing relationship rather than a one-time service. Members gain curated monthly grant
opportunities, wholistic health assessments and resources via the Institute of Wholistic Health
Hub, wellness sample packs, access to online courses, and priority notice of events and
member discounts. Four tiers welcome everyone from curious newcomers to organisations
investing in their teams:
● VLF Ambassador: a free community membership with health resources, newsletters,
and invitations to VLF events.
● VLF Member: one curated grant opportunity each month, a personal health
assessment, a SuperPatch sample pack, and Health Hub access.
● VLF Member, Annual (Best Value): everything the monthly tier offers plus a full course
from VLF’s e-learning catalogue — at a meaningful saving versus monthly billing.
● VLF Corporate Partner: group coaching for management and staff, team health
assessments, a course for the team, sector-relevant grant leads, logo placement on the
VLF website, and a quarterly check-in with Dr. Nicole.
Enrollment is simple: members choose a tier, sign up, and pay securely via Wise or bank
transfer, with confirmation and full benefits delivered by welcome email. Full tier details are
available on the VLF Membership page.
Every Membership Reinvests in the Community
As a registered non-profit exempt from profit tax in Sint Maarten, VLF reinvests revenue into
transformational community impact — youth scholarships, homelessness reintegration, senior
support, and free public workshops. To date, the Foundation has secured more than $500,000
in institutional grants, maintains an 80%+ grant-writing success rate, and has impacted
thousands of lives across the Caribbean and beyond. Joining the membership community is, in
effect, an investment in that mission.
