I arrived in 2004, shortly after the release of a performance audit, which suggested sweeping changes in our business model. My first task was to complete a comprehensive review of MSS’s programs. Following my review, we looked at the feasibility and impact of recommendations from the audit. Now that these tasks are complete, and our program structure is in place, we are working on securing accreditation from the Council on Accreditation.
Metropolitan
Social Services serves its clientele in
three ways.
- First, through its Adult and Family Service Divison it provides a complement of direct services to those in need;
- Second, through its Planning and Coordination Unit, it conducts research to improve existing programs, and identify emerging problems;
- Third, it seeks to create a management role that will help coordinate and inform service providers and avoid unnecessary duplication of effort
My
staff and I are committed to helping all people in Metropolitan
Nashville-Davidson County live a quality life. We acknowledge
that we can only achieve our mission and vision by partnering
with community organizations and residents. We welcome the opportunity
to share resources, work together to achieve common goals, and
create new possibilities for service to Nashvillians.
