Our ideal candidate demonstrates resilience to model outward behaviors including seeing people like ourselves, whose goals, objectives, needs, and challenges matter.
Our
Community Wellness and Youth Education Manager is responsible for managing the programs in the Community Wellness and Youth Education Unit in the Community Based Prevention Section within the Office of Healthy & Safe Communities. This position provides leadership in strategic planning for program implementation and outcomes; vision for overall program focus and direction; selection, supervision, mentoring and, if necessary, discipline of staff; and establishes and maintains key stakeholder relationships. Our Community Wellness and Youth Education Manager is responsible for directing a group of activities and functions that provide support to the Youth Cannabis and Commercial Tobacco Prevention, Oral Health, and Comprehensive Cancer Control programs, as well as various coverage needs for cross-section programs at the direction of the Section Manager.

This position resides in the Community Based Prevention Section with the Office of Healthy and Safe Communities.
When we talk to our Community Wellness and Youth Education Manager about their values, they’ll see themselves in words like Human-Centered, Partnership, Equity, and Excellence. They’ll also see in these words a challenge to improve—personally and organizationa
lly—in pursuit of a better impact on people and better business outcomes.
When we ask others about them, they’ll describe a person of remarkable capability, diligence, and focus. They’ll tell us about someone who:

• Sees and understands the objectives and challenges of people they work with and people they impact.
• Makes adjustments to what they’re doing based on what they learn.
• Holds themselves accountable for actually helping those around them succeed, as well as achieving their own business results.

It takes personal courage, tenacity, and humility to achieve big things in this way. Our ideal candidates probably wonder whether they’re up to this challenge. But they want to take it on because they’re hungry for personal growth and hungry to help build this kind of business, team, and workplace culture at the Department of Health.
