  • Create a high-performance culture by investing in professional development and celebrating success.
  • Lead effective onboarding and mentorship programs for new team members and EDiTs.

  • Host or promote weekly caregiver support groups to build community and empower families.
  • Advocate for school-based services and support caregiver participation in treatment planning.
  • Develop and nurture strategic relationships with community stakeholders, referral sources, and business development partners to support growth and enhance service awareness.
