Giving Heart Beat host Donna Valente interviews Edna Sutton, Founder of Compassions Training and Awareness Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Edna is a survivor of domestic violence at a young age that caused her to become spinal cord injured. She overcame countless obstacles to attain her goal to live independently. Because she must rely on caregivers to come into her home to help her take care of basic needs, she developed a training program to educate and empower caregivers and those that need safe, skilled care. Edna sheds light on the abuse that is, tragically, prevalent in situations where a person requires assistance for activities of daily living.
Compassions Training and Awareness Center is an IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit located in Cleveland, Ohio.

Compassions Training and Awareness Center is in dire need of a website rebuild, as its website was recently hacked. If Edna's message touches your heart and you wish to help her get back to training more caregivers for people living with paralysis, please get in touch!
