Working in partnership with the outreach and marketing teams, the Outreach Coordinator ensures prospective families receive a best-in-class experience from their first contact through enrollment. This includes maintaining clear and consistent communication with leads, tracking follow-ups, answering questions about services, and providing general support to help families begin their journey with us.
