Program Quality, Performance, and Accountability

  • Monitor program performance through senior program leaders, dashboards, reports, outcomes, audits, corrective action plans, and key performance indicators.
  • Identify programmatic risks, service gaps, staffing challenges, contract concerns, and areas requiring executive attention.
  • Ensure timely and accurate program information is available for executive decision-making, board reporting, funder engagement, and strategic planning.
  • Promote a culture of program excellence, accountability, compassion, and continuous improvement.
  • Cross-Program Coordination and Service Alignment
    • Strengthen coordination among program divisions to improve client pathways, reduce silos, and support integrated service delivery.
      • Work with senior program leaders to ensure consistency in communication, referrals, documentation, service standards, and client-centered practices.
      • Identify opportunities to improve systems, workflows, policies, procedures, and program infrastructure.
      • Support alignment between housing, food and nutrition, wellness, recovery, youth, care management, community initiatives, and other program areas.
      • Ensure program operations reflect trauma-informed, culturally responsive, client-centered, and community-based practices.

Contract, Budget, and Funder Alignment
  • Partner with Finance, Operations, Advancement, and senior program leaders to ensure program budgets, staffing models, contract deliverables, and service expectations are aligned.
  • Review program performance in relation to funding requirements, staffing capacity, service goals, and organizational sustainability.
  • Support the development, renewal, and implementation of government, foundation, and private funding opportunities in partnership with Advancement and Finance.
  • Ensure program input for proposals, renewals, reports, site visits, audits, and funder communications is timely, accurate, and strong.
  • Identify risks related to underperformance, contract compliance, funding gaps, staffing vacancies, or operational barriers.

Leadership, Culture, and Staff Capacity
