Ascentria Care Alliance focuses on every child, elder, person with a differing ability, refugee, teenage mom – and whomever they call “family” - in order to build stronger communities one person at a time, ensuring that they experience New England as home to caring communities where people experience love, belonging, wellbeing, and hope. This is an excellent opportunity to help shape the impact of a $150 M non-profit social services organization with programs throughout New England.
