Audri Beugelsdijk

As Vice President of Survivor Services at TAPS, Audri Beugelsdijk diligently oversees operations, ensuring immediate and long-term support for survivors. Her purview encompasses a wide range of services, including the 24/7 National Military Survivor Helpline, Survivor Care Team, Peer Mentor Program, and Youth Programs, among others.

A holder of bachelor's and master's degrees in psychology, Audri brings extensive training in death, dying, and bereavement to her role. This knowledge was gained through respected institutions, such as the Association for Death Education and Counseling (ADEC), the National Alliance for Grieving Children, and the TAPS Institute for Hope and Healing®. Her commitment to the TAPS mission is evident in her tireless efforts to provide a comforting refuge for military families.

As a Navy veteran and widow of CTRSN Jason Springer, U.S. Navy, lost at sea on the USS Kinkaid, Audri's dedication is deeply personal and profoundly inspiring.
