Julie Dugan – Declaring Victory – Episode 013

Today’s guest is Julie Dugan of The Dugan Foundation. The Foundation came together to change how Pierce County treats its adoptable animals with the goal of a “no-kill” community. After several years of hard work, education, and approaching the issue at the level of systems change, The Dugan Foundation has reached a place that so few nonprofits ever get to experience: they are declaring victory, distributing the assets, and winding up the foundation. What’s it like to “put yourself out of business,” so to speak? Check it out.

Erik is an absolute joy to work with. He took the time to understand our organization and board dynamics weeks before the retreat and gave everyone the opportunity to voice their thoughts on retreat priorities and objectives. He even made time to talk to any staff or board member one-on-one, anonymously, to be sure that any behind-the-scenes concerns would be addressed. At the retreat itself, he was an excellent facilitator that helped us to lead ourselves through our visioning and next-step process. His recommendations came from deep experience and helped us to streamline and reimagine how we operate both logistically and in service of our mission. I can’t recommend him enough.
