With nearly four years at Aprendamos Family of Services, Marianna has built a well-rounded understanding of the Parents As Teachers program through several roles, including Parents As Teachers Home Visitor, Supervisor, and most recently, Data and Intake Manager. Each position has provided valuable insight into the many moving parts that make the program successful.
Throughout this journey, the most meaningful part has been experiencing the program from every perspective. From building trusting relationships with families as a Home Visitor, to supporting and developing staff as a supervisor, to seeing the importance of strong systems and processes through Data and Intake, each role has reinforced just how important every piece is in making a difference for the families we serve.
As Marianna navigates this role, there is excitement about bringing all of these experiences together to support the program as a whole. One of the biggest goals is to create an environment where staff feel supported, encouraged, and equipped to do their best work while ensuring families continue to receive the quality services they deserve.
Marianna’s leadership approach focuses on positivity, teamwork, communication, and growth, with a little fun along the way! She hopes to foster a team that enjoys the work they do, takes pride in their contributions, and shares a common passion for helping families thrive.
As she continues in this exciting new chapter, Marianna wants coworkers and the community to know just how grateful she is for this opportunity. Her commitment remains the same: supporting staff, strengthening the program, and making a lasting, positive impact on the families and communities they serve.
“I’m incredibly grateful for this opportunity and excited for this new chapter. I am here to support our staff and the families that we serve, and I am committed to ensuring we provide quality services that make a lasting impact.”
