The New Jersey Funders ACEs Collaborative is seeking to hire an “Executive on Loan” to share their expertise with the State of New Jersey and coordinate statewide efforts to prevent, protect against, and heal from the effects of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). The Executive on Loan position will be a two-year contract with the NJ Funders ACEs Collaborative. The Executive on Loan will report to the New Jersey Department of Children and Families (DCF) and liaise between the State government and the NJ ACEs Funders Collaborative—a partnership between the Burke Foundation, The Nicholson Foundation, and the Turrell Fund—in support of statewide ACEs-related policy and programming.
This public-private alliance seeks to dramatically increase public awareness of ACEs and activate members from sectors such as health, business, education, child welfare, government, nonprofit and philanthropy to coordinate in addressing ACEs. In the summer of 2019, the NJ Funders ACEs Collaborative published the Adverse Childhood Experiences: Opportunities to Prevent, Protect Against, and Heal from the Effects of ACEs in New Jersey report, which launched a statewide discussion around addressing ACEs and will continue to inform engagement through the development and implementation of a statewide ACEs Action Plan in 2020.
