The successful candidate will be responsible for the overall operations of the agency, including providing operational and fiduciary oversight, ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations, and leading the development and implementation of the agency's programs. This role requires a deep commitment to community-driven processes, high energy, and a strong motivation for the mission. The Executive Director will also be tasked with fostering collaborations with other community-based agencies, managing the agency's marketing efforts, and overseeing all aspects of human resources, including staff development and training.

Ideal candidates for the Executive Director position at the company will have an associate's degree or higher, with 2-3 years' of experience in the behavioral health profession. Experience in the substance abuse field is highly valued, and a background in nonprofit management and fund development is preferred.
