One of dozens of collaboratives in the state, the Family Services Collaborative of the Lakes Area has served thousands of children and families across the communities of Brainerd, Crosby-Ironton and Pequot Lakes for nearly 25 years through an interagency partnership with Crow Wing County Community Services as their fiscal host.
Through this relationship and in collaboration with a unique network of schools, community organizations and local government agencies, the collaborative has provided innovative programming to address the needs of children and youths who face complex problems involving them and their families with multiple service systems.
To meet the growing needs of the community and increase capacity to make progress towards their vision of a future where every young person succeeds in education, families are well-supported to meet their physical and mental health needs and employers find abundant talent locally, the Family Services Collaborative is in the process of restructuring and creating a stand-alone 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. They are currently recruiting for an executive director to lead this transition.
This position will oversee the organization’s fiscal operation, fundraising, community relations and overall successful performance of the organization. Interested candidates should visit the collaborative’s website for more information and application instructions:
