Our team

The people who will run this

We are a small, deliberately lean team — two full-time roles plus contracted facilitators and specialists, supported by a large volunteer corps. Here is each role and what it is accountable for. Named profiles will appear here as people are hired.

Core staff

Two full-time roles. Named profiles will appear here as people are hired.

Hiring

How we hire

Lived experience counts as experience here. If you have done this work without the title — navigated a system for your own family, held a support group together, rebuilt after a hard few years — say so plainly in your application. We read for it.
