Todd Johnson, who has served as the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Northland's chief executive officer for the past 28 years, has stepped down to pursue new opportunities.

Under Johnson's leadership, the organization has achieved significant growth and has expanded its reach from Duluth to also serve youth in the Superior, Hibbing, and Grand Rapid/Greenway communities.

During his tenure, Johnson received many awards, including being inducted into the Boys & Girls Club Great Plains Area Council Hall of Fame and CEO of the Year.

To ensure a seamless transition while the search for a new CEO begins, the organization’s Chief Financial Officer, Dawn Hautajarvi, will serve as the interim CEO and all club operations and programming will continue as normal.
