Melissa joined the North Sound ACH team in August 2023 as our Contract Coordinator.

With a Bachelor of Science in Health and Human Services, she brings a wealth of experience from her background in family practice and holistic health. Melissa’s desire to help folks is rooted in her personal journey, including adopting three siblings, overcoming family struggles with substance misuse, and facing challenges due to a lack of community resources. Now, as a mother herself, she is committed to creating and providing a brighter future and advocating for essential community resources that promote the well-being of families. She is passionate about supporting mental health, substance addiction, healthcare, childcare, career opportunities, and financial assistance to help families not only stay together but thrive.

“They say that it takes a village. The ACH is that village that may help families obtain access to the resources they need to succeed. Together, we can contribute to the development of happier, healthier families and a more promising future for everybody. Being a part of something this exceptional is an honor.”
