Houstonian, born and raised in Sunnyside, Houston, and is described as a mother, grandmother,

community, but also Texas.
Through UVBHI, Marilyn and her team of highly-trained professionals strive daily to engage the
community, actively equip participants to recover, and offer multiple educational services.

influence many and serve thousands. She is proof that a vision for a business can become a reality
