Terri Brown
Meet Terri Brown. She was born and raised here in Houma in a close-knit family. Her mother instilled in her and her siblings the importance of helping and serving others. She feels her childhood prepared her to remain grounded and focused through all of life’s adversities. To this day she speaks to her siblings daily and they remain committed to supporting one another; which is a rare trait in today’s society. Terri is a proud mother to a daughter, Dr. Tiffany Jones-Wilkins, a pharmacy supervisor in Houston and a son-in-love, Marques Wilkins, an account executive for a major insurance firm and an investment broker. She states she is patiently waiting for a grandbaby so that she can become the “Grand T”. We believe she will be one of the best!
Terri has an extensive and diverse professional past. She enlisted and served 6 years in the United States Air Force. She was stationed in California, Korea, and the United Kingdom. Being an active member of the military gave her the opportunity to travel and visit several countries. After leaving the military and returning to Houma, Terri graduated from New Orleans Regional Technical College in Practical Nursing. After passing all licensing tests she worked at Terrebonne General for over 18 years. She then worked at local assisted living homes and nursing homes. She retired from nursing and in 2006 she became a veteran’s counselor for the state of Louisiana. She served the veteran population in helping veterans and their families obtain the federal benefits that they rightfully deserved. She is currently working on her masters in Social Work. She will be graduating May 7, 2022! We are so proud of her!
When Terri visits the office, the staff truly enjoys her visit. We may not get much done because she loves to talk and entertain us. She is a devout Christian and an active member of her church. She serves as a senior usher and helps with the youth ushers. Her caring and loving heart shows through in anything and everything she does.
Terri has been with CASA for nearly a year and is still actively working on her first case. She has gone out of her way to ensure that her CASA child has everything that she needs, especially since Hurricane Ida. Terri was drawn to CASA by a flyer that she received and she wanted to make a difference in the life of a child. She states that helping a child is so rewarding.
Terri, we appreciate you and your loving, giving heart so much. Thank you for your service to our country and currently to your CASA child.
