Family Connections Staff

Family Connections currently has one full time executive director and 10 part time staff. Our staff is focused in two primary areas: fundraising and program development.

Fundraising

The Family Connections Executive Director is primarily responsible for ensuring the ongoing financial strength of the organization. Currently our funding mix consists of foundation support, government contracts, corporate support, "sister school" support and individual donations. Assisting the Executive Director in fundraising are the Grants Coordinator, the Community Liaison Coordinator, the Outreach Coordinator, and the Development and Program Administrator. This staff team works together to bring funding and volunteer support into the organization. The Director of Finance is directly responsible for managing the organization's operating funds, long term investments and insurance program.

Program Development

The Education Coordinator is at the core of our program development. This position directly supervises the teacher at the Belle Haven location and the teacher at the Clara-Mateo Alliance and Girls Club location and the Saturday program teacher, providing guidance and expertise by mentoring, training, conducting program evaluations and curriculum development. The classroom locations are also supported by the Classroom Administrative Assistant who provides administrative assistance to the teachers and by the Community Liaison Coordinator who oversees our facilities. In addition we have support from a Program Assistant who assists with supplies and materials and two recruiters who work in the community to bring new families into the school.
