OPEN POSITIONS
Executive Director
For more than 20 years, Project: VISION has been a home for youth in Chicago’s Greater Chinatown community: a place where students discover their voice, build their confidence, and chart paths to college, careers, and community leadership. Last year, our team served 568 students and delivered more than 95,000 hours of programming.
We are now in the middle of an ambitious three-year strategic plan to build the infrastructure needed to grow our reach and deepen our impact in the coming years. After two decades of extraordinary leadership from our founding-era Executive Director, the Board of Directors is searching for our next Executive Director: a leader to honor what’s been built, navigate a season of intentional change, and propel Project: VISION into its next chapter.
