Dawn is one of our Outreach Health Coordinators and has been with the Rural Health Initiative just shy of 10 years. She has numerous years of experience in health care and is a Registered Nurse (RN). Her personality is very easy-going and laid back. She enjoys gardening, spending time with her family, and she has an ability to jump into conversation with almost anyone she meets.
