FCCASF's current major funding source is the San Francisco Department of Early Childhood (DEC). FCCASF holds seats on city-wide commissions, committees, and ECE community collectives.
FCCASF is currently navigating a leadership transition. We are seeking our next Executive Director to lead FCCASF into its next chapter.
Role Description The Executive Director (ED) is the chief staff leader of FCCASF, accountable to the Board of Directors for the organization's mission, strategy, fiscal health, and public presence. The ED carries the majority of FCCASF's day-to-day administrative and programmatic work and is the organization's primary voice in policy, partnership, and community-facing spaces.
The next ED will be a relationship-centered leader who can hold equal fluency in three worlds: (1) the intimate, trust-based world of FCC educators in their homes and networks; (2) the policy and funding world of City Hall, DEC, the state legislature, and philanthropic partners; and (3) the operational world of small-nonprofit management — budgets, grant compliance, staff supervision, and board governance. The ED amplifies educator voice in rooms educators are rarely invited into, builds the kind of organization FCC educators trust to represent them, and keeps FCCASF sustainable as an independent, peer-led institution.
Key responsibilities We anticipate that at first, our new ED will focus on internal aspects of the organization (administration and fiscal management, staff supervision, internal policies, and governance). Secondarily, the ED will focus on development responsibilities. Within 3–5 years we expect the duties to shift to the external duties, which are the mainstay of the program.
