Pilot People Encouraging People to its next landing place as the organization’s new Chief Executive Officer, adding exciting destinations to its 45- year journey as an ever responsive, integrated healthcare entity in the Baltimore- Washington corridor.
Our 501 c 3 corporation provides value-based services that are life-transforming for traditionally underserved, trauma infused communities where complex health and social issues often result in extreme poverty, homelessness, psychiatric illness, substance abuse disorders, and incarceration. Some people experience them all and are amazingly resilient. We have high expectations of and for them to demonstrate our commitment to social justice, and support each person in the manner that best ensures their recovery, health and life choices. Our responsibility is to support healthy neighbors to build healthy communities.
We are person-centered and industry savvy. Business and family focused. We are humble and sophisticated. Very diverse and united in mission. We believe that poverty, homelessness and incarceration cannot coexist with good health.
Psychiatric illnesses are the most common reason to referral to our organization. Our Assertive Community Treatment, Engagement and Outreach Services, Targeted Case Management, Treatment and Rehabilitation Services, and Supported and Affordable Housing touch over 4000 individuals each year. With seven office locations in five counties, a staff of over 250 professionals and paraprofessionals, and 320 housing units owned and managed by People Encouraging People, this $28m+ Joint Commission Accredited non- profit corporation offers effective and compassionate care to adults in need, as well as their families.
The current CEO, who has piloted the organization for more than 40 years, is running low on fuel. Time to be grounded and let a new innovator and creative leader take the controls. Curious to see where People Encouraging People will land next? You develop the itinerary and let a very capable flight crew assist you in getting there.
