For the past five years, I have witnessed the tremendous leadership of the Dixon Center and could not be more excited that we are joining forces.
Organizations seek out Dixon Center to provide trusted counsel to increase their impact at the community level. Dixon Center has worked with thousands of organizations and passionate individuals who want to ensure that veterans and military families have the right resources to advance their education, employment, and wellness needs.
