Dawn Edquist
Access and Admin Manager
Dawn serves as the Access and Admin Manager, a vital role that ensures families can smoothly and reliably access THRIVE services. She oversees all family scheduling for both the THRIVE Market and THRIVE To Go programs, helping operations run efficiently while creating a welcoming and organized experience for those we serve.
After spending nearly 25 years working in major corporations across the region, Dawn shifted her focus to nonprofit work and volunteering. She began volunteering at THRIVE in 2023 at our former location and quickly fell in love with the organization.
Dawn often says her love language is feeding people “so this is a way that I get to do it every day.” Outside of work, she enjoys cooking, traveling, and watching her daughter perform ballet.
