    Position Overview

This work includes inspiring the leading youth-supporting organizations in Denver to join our community, ensuring that deep engagement with our programming leads to organizational improvement for participating organizations, leading the ideation and launch of new Denver based multi-organization collaborations, and raising the funds necessary to scale and support this work. Reporting to APA’s Chief of Staff, this position is an exciting opportunity to create greater alignment among Denver organizations, launch new collective action efforts in the city, and contribute to the design and evolution of a powerful local-national network. Ultimately, the Denver Executive Director is responsible for ensuring our Alliance community becomes a powerful force for change in Denver, with a focus on issues in K12 education, youth development, postsecondary to workforce pathways, and democratic and civic engagement.

    About APA

    Our Alliance is a community of the leading youth-supporting nonprofits working in K-12 education, postsecondary to workforce pathways, and democracy and civic engagement. All member organizations enroll their CEO and leadership teams in our community. Over the last two years, 100 organizations and 500+ leaders have joined us in this effort.

    We add annual value to our member organizations by helping them improve, through an integrated model of leadership development, knowledge sharing, and capacity building. In this programming, leaders in our community build trust, relationships, and the habits for working together and we are consistently reinforcing the practical benefits of sharing and collaboration across organizations. We then use the “culture of the collective” in our community to ideate, design, and launch multi-organization collaborations, focused on opportunities in our issue areas that are too large or too complex for any one organization to address on its own. Learn more about our Alliance community here and access the complete 2022-2026 strategic plan here.

    Our Denver expansion is part of APA’s efforts to build a hybrid local-national community. This allows APA to support the development of local and more proximate organizations (who have historically had less access to these networks and supports) in their efforts to innovate, grow, and increase their impact. It also allows Denver nonprofits to learn from their peers in similarly sized cities and connects these organizations to leading national organizations working in their issue areas. Perhaps most importantly, it provides the infrastructure and empowers Denver organizations to ideate and design on the new collaborations that have the greatest potential to increase outcomes and opportunity for young people in the city.
