• The audit further highlighted the program’s philosophy of continuous growth: “Staff and leadership understand that the only competition they have is with themselves and in being a better organization, provider, and person than they were yesterday.“
• As Program Manager, you will be expected to honor and build upon this foundation; fostering a culture of empathy, trust, and excellence that continues to empower youth on their path to healing.
