Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity to be an integral part of a dynamic team that makes positive, systems-level change for not-for-profit agencies that support people with differing abilities to maximize their independence and pursue their life goals? If so, the New York Alliance for Inclusion and Innovation (NY Alliance) has the opportunity for you.

We seek a motivated person to serve as an Assistant Vice President for Special Projects. This is a position within the statewide association that is pivotal to helping the organization advance its mission: “to serve as a catalyst for positive change and leading resource for individuals with disabilities, their families, and the organizations supporting them.”

If you seek a warm working environment that promotes a strong, team-based approach to advance the organization’s mission and the interests of NY Alliance members, we encourage you to apply for this position.

The Assistant Vice President for Special Projects shall perform duties associated with a wide array of special projects at the association. Working in close collaboration with the Vice President of Program Development and Grant Management, the individual will be involved with program design, education and technical assistance, public policy analysis and grants-related research functions for an Albany, NY based statewide association representing not-for-profit providers of services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). Reporting to the Vice President of Program Development and Grant Management, this position will develop positive working relationships with association members, government officials, stakeholders in the disabilities sector and other human services fields to advance the best interests of not-for-profit providers and the people they support.

Minimum Qualifications:
