ABOUT US: - We believe that everyone deserves a home!
Breaking Ground operates nearly 4,000 units of housing across New York City, along with housing in upstate New York and Connecticut. Supportive housing - affordable housing paired with services designed to help people maintain their homes for the long-term - is widely recognized as a proven and cost-effective solution to chronic homelessness.
But we didn’t stop at providing housing. Breaking Ground’s programs and services help people experiencing street homelessness - especially those who have been on the streets the longest - to come indoors. Through our Street to Home outreach program and transitional housing resources, we help people get, and stay, on the path to a permanent home.
Reporting to the Vice President Government Contract Compliance and Data Strategy, the Assistant Vice President, Data Operations and Strategy is responsible and accountable for managing Breaking Ground’s data as a critical asset of the work; delivering insights that improve decision making and foster innovation, while driving collaboration and collective impact across areas of our work. Critically, this work enables and supports the effective use of data for multiple purposes including impact at the organizational, community, and external levels.
