Heather
Dickerson

Board President

My motto is “See a need, Fill a need”. I have lived in Shasta County most of my life. AccessHome has a mission to fill the housing needs of not only people with disabilities, but also to address our areas growing homeless situation. My interest in AccessHome is to help the program work towards a brighter future for our area. Provide a Home, not just a house for people in need.

“The heart of a volunteer is never measured in size, but by the depth of the commitment to make a difference in the lives of others” – DeAnn Hollis

Saxonny
Carmony

Board Vice-President

I am originally from Long Beach and relocated to Redding about 10 years ago where I now live with my husband and two kids. My hope is to utilize my schooling experience in allied health studies coupled with my professional experience in the financial field to aid in the growth of AccessHome and produce a positive societal impact on our local counties and the people that call them home.

Beyond that, I believe that on a human being level it is imperative to fight for those in need. A home is the first step in a long process of reintegrating the underserved demographics in our county. In continuing the vision of AccessHome, we are working towards a safer, thriving community for the generations to come.

Leslie
Wilson

Secretary / Treasurer

I gained interest in AccessHome through my association with a retired board member. Recently I read about the AccessHome program that will develop a plan of action to enable homeless to be assessed for their needs; mental and physical, and assist them in acquiring housing. I have the opportunity to be part of a team to provide economical housing and allow clients to move forward to a stable presence.

I am interested in serving on the BOD because I use to be homeless in the past and would like to be involved in an organization that helps people with housing.
