ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW
“United Way California Capital Region has been serving our five-county region for nearly 100 years to build stronger, healthier, and more compassionate communities. We are dedicated to improving the lives of families and children, and strengthening communities in Amador, El Dorado, Placer, Sacramento, and Yolo counties.”
Our client, United Way California Capital Region (UWCCR) [yourlocalunitedway.org], is seeking a dynamic new President and Chief Executive Officer. This individual will replace Stephanie McLemore Bray, who left UWCCR after seven very productive years, to join Seattle Foundation as its Chief Engagement Officer. At the end of 2020, UWCCR received a “game changer” donation of $10 million from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott. The new President and CEO is coming into a well-resourced organization, one that is seeking new leadership to leverage this incredible gift.
United Way California Capital Region is an independent local affiliate of United Way Worldwide with a local board of directors. United Way Worldwide is an international movement of nearly 1,800 community-based United Ways in 40 countries. It advances the common good by focusing on education, income, and health – the building blocks for a good quality life. The United Way movement mobilizes millions to action – to give, advocate and volunteer – to improve conditions in their local community.
Founded nearly 100 years ago to improve people’s lives and build stronger communities in the capital area, UWCCR continues to be a backbone in the community, serving as a leader amongst nonprofits. It serves a five-county region -- Amador, El Dorado, Placer, Sacramento, and Yolo -- with a total population of nearly 2.4 million people. The mission of UWCCR is to improve people’s lives in the region by mobilizing and integrating resources.
The current work has UWCCR spearheading regional relief efforts during the pandemic. In the early months, the organization raised $572,000 to provide 1,145 families with $500 to offset costs of rent, bills and basic needs. The organization is also working with the city of Sacramento on a digital equity program to provide free broadband access to up to 10,000 low-income Sacramento households, plus free computers and digital literacy training for another thousand households. UWCCR also continues their The Square One Project, launched in 2016. Square One is a 20-year promise to significantly increase the number of local students who graduate from high school, ready for success in college or career. Ending poor health, high unemployment, racial inequality and poverty starts in school. School is “square one” for reaching all families and ensuring children are healthy and successful.
Importantly, our United Way shares the community’s feelings of sadness and outrage toward racial violence and injustice. We are committed to building stronger, healthier and more compassionate communities and channeling our justifiable outrage to collaborative action, and we are seeking new leadership to do just that.

Working closely with our affiliates, Tribal/Native/Indigenous entities and other conservation and community partners, our programs help expand Monarch migration pathways, restore beavers for riparian health, expand protection for Native Hawaiian seabirds, and connect children and families with nature, and more. Some of our conservation programs extend beyond our region, including work on western water, wildlife habitat connectivity, and youth and adult education.

Full time
Founded in 1936, the National Wildlife Federation has grown into America's largest and most trusted grassroots conservation organization with 53 state/territorial affiliates and more than six million members and supporters. The mission of the National Wildlife Federation is to unite all Americans to ensure wildlife thrive in our rapidly changing world. The National Wildlife Federation believes that in order to save wildlife and ourselves, we need to ensure that everyone in America has clean air and water, safe communities, easy and equitable access to the daily benefits of nature, and protection from the ravages of climate change. These basic needs, equally necessary and urgent for all people, are foundational to bringing the conservation movement and ethos into the 21st century.
Our organization operates from offices across the country, including our headquarters in Reston, Virginia; a National Advocacy Center in Washington, D.C.; and seven regional centers. The Federation also works with our 53 state and territory affiliates—autonomous, nonprofit organizations that take the lead in state and local conservation efforts and collaborate with the National Wildlife Federation to conduct grassroots activities on national issues.
Through conservation policy oversight, program development, fundraising, collaboration and personnel management, the Regional Executive Director (RED) provides organizational leadership in the Northern Rockies, Prairies and Pacific Region. The RED collaborates with affiliate partners and other organizations within the region in support of the National Wildlife Federation's strategic plan ( A Common Agenda for Wildlife ) and our Equity and Justice Strategic Plan . The RED strategically engages NWF Board members and collaborates with regional center staff to help identify and cultivate potential new leaders for NWF.
The RED reports to the Chief Program Officer and works collaboratively with other senior leaders to advance the strategic direction of the organization. This position may be based in Missoula, MT or Seattle, WA . Please Note: Due to COVID-19 all employees are working remotely until we make return to work decisions.
About Our Region:
The Northern Rockies, Prairies & Pacific Region spans a large and diverse geographic landscape across the states of Alaska, Hawai’i, Oregon, Washington and California in the Pacific; Montana and Idaho in the Rockies; and North and South Dakota in the Great Plains.

Our regional team has proven its commitment to wildlife and people by advancing landscape-scale conservation through four decades of successful campaigns to protect grizzly bears, restore bison on public and Tribal lands, secure safe habitat for bighorn sheep, and fight for runs of wild salmon. Working closely with our affiliates, Tribal/Native/Indigenous entities and other conservation and community partners, our programs help expand Monarch migration pathways, restore beavers for riparian health, expand protection for Native Hawaiian seabirds, and connect children and families with nature, and more. Some of our conservation programs extend beyond our region, including work on western water, wildlife habitat connectivity, and youth and adult education.
