Executive Director
The Guidance Center
Bradford, Pennsylvania
My name is Denise Bean and I serve as the Executive Director at The Guidance Center (TGC) headquartered in Bradford in Northwestern PA. TGC, has offices in nine different areas and a variety of services in eight different counties in PA. We serve close to 7,000 individuals annually. My “formal training” is in psychology & education, but I consider my life lessons to be the invaluable knowledge I can offer.
My passion and commitment are to the underserved. Believing that obstacles can be overcome, I have spent most of my 37 plus years career developing new programs to fill identified gaps in services. Providing programs across a large geographical area is a challenge so building strong teams and relationships with community partners is one of my essential tasks.
