Regional Success Stories Continued
REGION 3 A DEMONSTRATED UNDERSTANDING OF CHAPTER 6 Krystal Bononcini is a dedicated and passionate investigator lead within Region 3. She brings her passion for vulnerable adults to the table daily. Recently, she led a case through the Investigation Review Team (IRT) process and the findings were elevated directly to the court of appeals. She demonstrated her understanding of Chapter 6 under pressure and relaying clear facts while firmly outlining APS advocacy during her testimony for a vulnerable adult in the ever-changing landscape of the pandemic. These findings were validated by an affirmed initial order for the department on all three appeals/cases. Like many, she’s also known for going the extra mile for vulnerable adults. We are glad Krystal is a part of the APS team.
Jesse Dixon
Communications and Marketing Manager
Headquarters SPOTLIGHT
Jesse joined our team as a marketing & communications manager in March of this year. Government service is not new to him, as he just completed a 13year career in the U.S. Army. He and his family finally decided to settle down in Washington due to their love for its beautiful lands, cultural diversity, and welcoming residents.
“It is a pleasure to get to work with a group of talented and dedicated people who work tirelessly every day to transform lives and protect some of Washington’s most vulnerable,” said Jesse. “I consider it a privilege to tell your stories and inform the public about all of the excellent services that this organization provides.” “Public perception and awareness are vital to APS and our mission,” said Jesse. “We need to stay proactive and ensure that our organization reaches our customers on their terms.” Jesse and the communications team provides APS personnel with a wide range of communications and marketing services and is more than happy to help support the internal and external communications needs of the organization.
