Personal:

Hi Guys! My name is Ronda Hutchings and I’m the Prevention Specialist for Beaver County. I have lived in Beaver the majority of my life and couldn’t have chosen a better place to raise my 3 children. I’m truly blessed to live in such a beautiful and close knit community. It’s a great feeling knowing the people in my community in numerous capacities. I get to work around them, go to church with them, and see them at the football games and in the grocery store. The atmosphere of truly knowing your neighbors is one of a kind and helps me be the best Prevention Specialist I can be. I’ve had the privilege of working for Southwest Behavioral Health Center since 2001, and love being able to work in the prevention field. Not only do I get the opportunity to work with people who truly care about our youth and our community, but I get the peace of mind knowing that prevention is not just the passion that drives me but a science that proves to me that what I do every day works! I love my job!
I figured the easiest way to know a little about me was to do a quick “World-in-a-Minute” so to speak:
  • I prefer a good ol' hotdog over steak any day
  • I might possibly have a small shopping addiction
  • I could eat potatoes in any variety, daily
  • I secretly love man-buns (ok maybe not so secret)
  • I really like to pull weeds... no, really.
  • My kids are the light of my life
  • I married my high school sweetheart and have been married for 27 years, (he’s cute)
  • I love anything to do with history
  • I have an absolute passion for working with kids
  • I love the challenge of understanding people and why we do what we do
  • I love to read but am the slowest reader alive
  • I just might be a little ADD and am known among my students for getting just a tich distracted... (makes for some great conversations)
  • I love going to the movies
  • I dis-like cooking
  • My favorite place to be is the lake (Yuba north shore) with my family.
