50/50 Women of Influence with Terri Lee: Running to a Place Where Everybody Is Somebody

Terri Lee spent years trying to run from housing. Today, the President and CEO of Atlanta Housing calls it her ministry, her calling and her life's work. In this special 50 Over 50 Women of Influence episode, Ashley Northcutt and Ann Cone talk with Terri about the journey from Grambling, Louisiana, to leading one of the country's largest housing authorities, the mentors and family members who shaped her, and the faith that helped her step into opportunities even when she was afraid. Terri also shares how Atlanta Housing is approaching housing as a pathway to economic mobility, why families can never become transactions or numbers, and the responsibility established leaders have to reach back and develop the next generation. Her message is powerful and simple: the work is bigger than any one of us. Link arms, lift others and keep moving forward.
