Program Manager

• Aug 2008 - Jan 2020

As program manager, I recruit, train, and manage 40 AmeriCorps members maintaining collaborative partnerships with over 20 Palm Beach County non-profit organizations, elementary schools and high schools. Community impact and community relations are essential job functions and this program, with it's twenty year track record, continues to provide essential literacy and education skills to learners who need it the most. Each program year, the AmeriCorps members (or intensive tutors and mentors) directly tutor or mentor students and adults who lack the most basic literacy skills. They intensively tutor children below grade level reading in underperforming elementary schools. They teach adults crucial employability and English language skills at libraries and adult education centers. They mentor at-risk seniors preventing drop out and promoting high school graduation in high schools with low graduation rates. For the latest program year, all performance measures were exceeded: 88% of adult learners met target gains, 80% of children met target gains and 78% of high school seniors graduated with a standard diploma with 96% of underclassmen remained in school and were promoted to the next grade.
