About the Role

We are currently seeking a dynamic and experienced Executive Director to lead our organization into its next chapter of growth and innovation. This role is not only about management—it’s about mission. As our next Executive Director, you will be the key driver of strategic vision, financial sustainability, and community engagement.

You’ll oversee operations, lead fundraising initiatives, and work side-by-side with our passionate staff and dedicated Board of Directors to ensure Positive Directions continues to thrive. Your leadership will directly shape the programs that touch lives in Westport, Norwalk, Weston, Fairfield, Wilton, and beyond.


What We’re Looking For

  • A confident, hands-on leader with at least 3 years in a senior leadership role.

  • A master’s degree and a deep understanding of nonprofit operations.

  • Experience in mental health services or clinical management is highly preferred.

  • A track record of successful fundraising, strategic planning, and public speaking.

  • Someone who believes in innovation, collaboration, and community impact.


Who We Are

Founded in 1971, Positive Directions – The Center for Prevention & Counseling – has been a cornerstone of mental health and addiction recovery in Fairfield County for over 50 years. As a nonprofit based in Westport, CT, we are dedicated to empowering individuals, strengthening families, and building resilient communities through prevention programs and compassionate clinical services.

Our work spans far beyond therapy. From partnering with local governments on youth substance prevention to providing telehealth services for individuals and families, Positive Directions is where care meets community.


Why Join Us?

At Positive Directions, you'll work with a team that’s as compassionate as it is capable, in a culture rooted in inclusion, equity, and growth. And you'll have the opportunity to lead an organization respected not only locally, but across the State of Connecticut.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, a strong support network, and the chance to lead with purpose every single day.
