Heidi Dirkse-Graw retires from Dirkse Counseling & Consulting, Jen Lundren to take the helm

#BeavertonBacktoWork

 

Dirkse Counseling & Consulting (DCC) was opened in 1997 by Heidi Dirkse, and last month we marked our 25th anniversary of helping Beaverton area residents meet their personal and vocational goals. During the anniversary month celebration, Heidi Dirkse-Graw announced her retirement from direct services and resigned her position at CEO. Heidi recognized her staff, past and present by stating “It has been an amazing experience founding and helping to build this company that makes a difference in the lives of others. I could not be more grateful to you all for being a part of DCC in the past and continuing forward.”

In conjunction with the retirement, Operations Director, Jen Lundgren, has been appointed to the lead position in Dirkse CC of Chief Executive Officer! Jen has been an integral part of the leadership team of Dirkse CC for six years and has helped us navigate during the pandemic. Glenn Bishop will continue in his role as the Employment Services Manager and Andrew Lundgren will continue in his role as the Counseling Services Manager.

Please join us in wishing Heidi the best in her retirement and Jen in her new role as CEO. As always, know that DCC is there to serve the Beaverton community with the mission of equity and opportunity for those who seek it.
