Staffing Announcement

Our Program Director, May Seto, is retiring as of January 31. May has been at Applegrove for 20 years and was instrumental in creating and growing many of the programs we offer today. She cares deeply about her work and the Applegrove community and has gone above and beyond to make sure that things get done, and are done well. We will greatly miss the energy, skills, practicality, creativity, perspectives, caring and everything else that May brings to Applegrove!

I am very happy to announce that Josh Grainger is taking on the role of Program Director. Josh has a long history of working with Applegrove in progressive roles, most recently as Child and Youth Coordinator and Program Assistant responsible for agency events and outreach. He brings extensive program experience, passion for community, deep commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging, and a well-rounded skill set that will be an asset to Applegrove in providing programs and services that meet community needs into the future.      

Please join me in thanking May for her service and wishing her all the best for her future adventures in life. And in extending a warm welcome to Josh.

Susanne Burkhardt

Executive Director
