Karraine Moody CEO Habitat

For Humanity

Karraine Moody, as Chief Executive Officer of Habitat for Humanity North Central Connecticut, is passionate about making a major difference in her community. Under her effective leadership and guidance, Habitat for Humanity North Central Connecticut took a leap of faith during the past year, and as a result many of the organization’s strategic initiatives – including expansion into Tolland County and the opening of a ReStore in Vernon– came to fruition as construction and extending help to families throughout the newly expanded region continued.

Moody has previously held positions with Hartford Public Schools, United Technologies and managed her own consulting firm prior to becoming CEO at Habitat for Humanity in the Hartford region in 2014. Through the years, she has consulted with several Hartford neighborhoods to assist with community and economic development initiatives.

She believes that through adequate housing, other accomplishments can be achieved including education attainment, career growth, civic engagement and family stability. Moody volunteers with local shelters and supports other community empowering organizations.
