Natasha Turcotte

Professional Impact

Natasha is truly a remarkable asset to their community. She embodies dedication, compassion, and service in everything she does. As their district’s homeless liaison, she works tirelessly with some of the most vulnerable members of their community, meeting each day with kindness, respect, and unwavering commitment. Her efforts reach far beyond her role. Natasha has hosted countless events that bring hope and opportunity to families in need. Through her backpack drive, she has provided thousands of children with the supplies they need to start the school year with confidence—often making sure they also have fresh haircuts so they can step into that first day feeling their very best.

Personal Passions

She established the Student Resource Center, ensuring every student has access to essential items like clothing, shoes, winter gear, and even showers—removing barriers so they can focus on learning and growing. Natasha walks alongside families experiencing homelessness, helping them secure housing and connect with the resources they need to move toward stability. She also supports unaccompanied youth—young people who desperately need someone to believe in them and guide them forward. Natasha is always that someone. She listens, she advocates, and she builds relationships that change lives. Her impact extends throughout the year. In the summer, she leads outreach programs, serving meals to hundreds of families every single day.

Love for Androscoggin

She is also deeply involved in Montello’s food pantry program, making sure no family is left without support. What sets Natasha apart is her spirit. She never says, “That’s not their job.” Instead, she asks, “How can help?” She sees challenges as opportunities and constantly seeks better solutions for their community. Her positivity, her determination, and her heart inspire everyone around her. It is rare to meet someone who gives so much of themselves with no expectation in return. Natasha doesn’t just do her job—she transforms lives. And it is their absolute honor, both as her colleague and as her friend, to nominate her for this recognition. She is a shining example of what it means to serve, to uplift, and to lead with love.
