About HVSP

Hudson Valley Service Providers (HVSP) is a coalition of 26 nonprofit agencies dedicated to supporting individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DD). Our member organizations deliver essential services including residential supports, day programs, employment services, community integration, clinical supports, and advocacy for people with I/DD and their families. HVSP provides regional leadership, collaborates on system-wide initiatives, and serves as a unified voice to government and community stakeholders.

Position Summary

HVSP seeks a dynamic, strategic, and relationship‑driven Director to lead the coalition’s advocacy, collaboration, and regional initiatives. The Director is responsible for developing and coordinating government and legislative advocacy efforts, managing member and board meetings, overseeing inter‑agency projects, leading subject‑matter subcommittees, and planning and executing regional events. This role requires exceptional communication, organizational leadership, and the ability to build strong partnerships across member agencies, government officials, and stakeholders within the I/DD community.

Maintain strong relationships with member organizations and foster a culture of transparency, collaboration, and collective impact.
Establish, support, and oversee subject‑matter subcommittees (e.g., Clinical Services, Residential Supports, Workforce Development, Compliance, Employment Services, etc.).
Ensure effective communication between subcommittees and the broader membership.
Track progress on joint initiatives and facilitate alignment across workgroups.
Lead planning and execution of collaborative projects across agencies (shared services, workforce initiatives, training opportunities, grant programs, or regional service enhancements).
Support development of joint proposals, reports, and inter‑agency agreements.
Coordinate multi-agency responses to statewide initiatives and regional challenges.
Plan or assist in planning and executing HVSP events including conferences, roundtables, symposiums, workforce fairs, and community awareness events.
Manage logistics, speakers, vendors, budgets, and post‑event evaluations.
Represent HVSP at community events, statewide meetings, and sector conferences.
Work closely with the HVSP Board of Directors; prepare meeting materials, strategic updates, and recommendations.
Support board governance functions, including strategic planning and policy development.
