Overview

Unconditional Education has received support from the U.S. Department of Education to implement and assess the Compass Care Model, a promising new strategy for chronic absenteeism that promotes a family-focused, peer support model for increasing student engagement and achievement. This multi-year project will include implementation with school partners in Tennessee, Washington State, and California and require a high level of coordination with external evaluators from WestEd. The Project Manager will play a key role on the UE Central team, supporting leadership and staff to plan, coordinate, and execute implementation and evaluation plans, collaborate regularly with key partners, and share resources, reports, and stories of success with internal and external audiences.
