SECRETARY, Ashley Newberry - Bio coming soon

The primary focus of Team Vacaville is to provide opportunities to children with special needs in the form of linking/partnering with organizations in Northern California, as well as offering events, recreational sports, and community activities exclusive to Team Vacaville. Our goal is also to provide a virtual and physical "meeting" place for families to share their struggles and victories with other parents who understand and relate.

T.E.A.M Vacaville believes that its the ABILITY that really matters with our children, and that by working together with other "buddies", family members, and community partners we can overcome some of the challenges special needs children face and break down the barriers that have limited the access to sports and community activities.

TEEN BUDDY MANAGER, Angelica Vargas - Everyone calls me Angi! I have a case of Peter Pan Syndrome so I thought, “whats the best way to never grow up, get paid to play!” I grew up in Fresno and I’ve worked in the special needs field since I was 16, that is when I found my passion for working with people of all abilities! We all have needs and we all have gifts and when we work together anything is possible. I currently work 3 jobs in the special ed field and am a board member for a special needs non profit. I aspire to teach special ed preschool, obtain my BCBA, and my ultimate dream is to run my own non profit agency. My self care consist of the 15 minutes I get in the coffee line at Dutch bros and the hour a month I get doing my nails!

BOARD ADVISOR & FOUNDER/PRESIDENT TEAM DIXON, Erica Hurtado - I am a mother of four, ages 16, 13, 10, 6. I have always been active in my community, including a Founding board member of Dixon Montessori Charter School, where I served seven years, three as Special Ed chair.  My son Ryan was born with disabilities.  As a mother, I am always looking for the balance in my own family.  Having both typical and special needs children, has inspired me to create a community which offers opportunities for special needs children, supported by typical peers who want to step up and do something positive.  That search lead me to the creation of TEAM Dixon.  My role for TEAM Vacaville will be to bridge the two teams to ensure there is communication, unity and consistency. Together we will grow and support our community through positive, fun and nurturing environments.
