AAUW Speaker Series – Tuesday, November 12th

Kristen Dambrowski
Executive Director of the Northwest Region of Canine Companions

Did you know that the national headquarters for Canine Companions is right here in Santa Rosa? Since 1975, this nonprofit has been the leader in the dog assistance industry, serving people with a wide variety of disabilities.  Canine Companions has developed a successful formula for breeding, raising, and training service dogs and operates training centers across the country. Our November speaker is Kristen Dambrowski, Executive Director of the Northwest Region of Canine Companions. We hope to have her bring along one of their four legged friends.

Before her current role, Kristen served as a director of an educational nonprofit where she successfully led initiatives to enhance donor engagement and increase organizational visibility, and as a director of the San Francisco YMCA.  Kristen has her Master’s degree in Nonprofit Administration from University of San Francisco.
