Program Director Are you a compassionate leader ready to make a difference in community mental health? Join PTWMSI as a Clinical Programs Director, where you’ll oversee the operational management, grant compliance, data performance, and stakeholder relationships for all assigned PTWMSI programs (SBE, VOC, MAP, etc.). This role ensures that program operations run smoothly, deliverables are met, partner expectations are fulfilled, and funding requirements are satisfied.

Maintain program calendars, school schedules, and site assignments.
Supervise non-clinical program staff and supervisors (program coordinators, administrative staff, support roles).
Provide workflow guidance, schedule management, and operational coaching.
Conduct operational performance evaluations. Partner with the Clinical Director when staff performance includes both clinical and operational factors.
Oversee all grant deliverables (DBH, OSSE, OVSJG, DC MAP, etc.). Ensure reporting accuracy, timeliness, and alignment with funder expectations.
Partner with Finance to manage program budgets and spending these grants.
Submit monthly, quarterly, and annual reports to funders.
