What You Bring to This Work This role is for someone who believes public systems can work better for children and families, and who wants to be part of making that happen from the inside. You'll thrive here if you: Keep children, youth, and families at the center. You see the family behind every policy, contract, and data point, and you hold System of Care values (family-driven, youth-guided, community-based, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive) as working principles. Think in systems. You understand that children's behavioral health spans many agencies, funding streams, and providers, and you look for how the pieces connect rather than working in silos. Treat relationships as infrastructure. You know that trust with providers, partner agencies, and families is what makes change stick, and you invest in it consistently.
