City of New York FEC Program Manager in New York, New York

Job Description

THE SELECTED CANDIDATE WILL BE OFFERED A SALARY BETWEEN $82,506 - $94,882.

The Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) protects and promotes the safety and well-being of children and families through child welfare and juvenile justice services and community supports. ACS manages community-based supports and foster care services and provides subsidized childcare vouchers. ACS child protection staff respond to allegations of child maltreatment. In juvenile justice, ACS oversees detention, placement and programs for youth in the community.

ACS’ Division of Child and Family Well-being (CFWB) designs and executes strategies to support caregivers, children, and communities, so they can thrive and enjoy self-determination. A critical piece of CFWB’s portfolio is the operation of the City’s subsidized childcare voucher system -- one of the largest childcare assistance programs in the country. ACS providers vouchers to tens of thousands of low-income and child welfare-involved families, allowing parents and caregivers to access affordable childcare at the provider of their choice while they pursue work, education, or training.

The Office of Community Engagement & Partnerships (OCEP), within ACS’ Division of Child and Family Well-Being (CFWB), works collaboratively with community residents, leaders, faith institutions, fatherhood providers and other stakeholders to 1) Promote goodwill and help deepen the community’s awareness of ACS’ programs, services and campaigns; 2) Connect the general public and vulnerable children and families to an array of community supports offered by ACS’ contract agencies; 3) Organize and convene the community through ACS’ 11 Community Partnership Programs and 3 Family Enrichment Center (FEC) networks; and 4) Build new partnerships that help to support equity and family safety, stability, and well-being.

OCEP builds social capital through its externally facing strategies by 1) deepening the community’s awareness of ACS’ programs and services; 2) supporting ACS-funded coalitions and planning bodies; and 3) building local and citywide partnerships, with a focus on promoting primary prevention and child and family well-being strategies. ACS, through OCEP, has established a presence in key City communities, with the leadership of the outgoing employee who successfully developed strong partnerships with a range of community groups and organizations.
