SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The board of directors of the Rescue Mission has appointed Dan Sieburg as the organization’s next CEO.
Sieburg succeeds Alan Thornton, who is leaving the organization to become president & CEO of Washington, D.C.–based St. John’s Community Services, the Rescue Mission said.
Sieburg joined the Rescue Mission 10 years ago and most recently served as chief program officer and was responsible for the oversight and “effective” delivery of all programs in Syracuse, Binghamton, Auburn, and Ithaca.
Under his leadership, “the lives of thousands of men, women and children experiencing hunger and homelessness have been changed,” the Rescue Mission said.
He also collaborates with local homelessness task forces and boards.
Sieburg holds an undergraduate degree from SUNY Cortland and a master’s degree in social work from Syracuse University, the Rescue Mission said.
