GROWING
VISION



Intentional growth at Metropolitan starts with our strategic, inclusive and forward-thinking leadership. Both fresh and familiar faces are coming together, in the spirit of collaboration that defines Metropolitan’s approach to community growth, to refresh the ways we create new opportunities and increase access to our existing opportunities for the children and families we serve.

» Growing collaboration to support programming
Whether it’s with St Augustine College and Lurie Children’s to provide educational opportunities for Parenting Fundamentals staff and client graduates, or with Cradles 2 Crayons to offer high-quality supplies for Early Learning and Community Schools children and their families, strategic partnerships with community organizations are a hallmark of Roxanne’s leadership.

» Growing Metropolitan’s profile in our communities
As she expands the Community Board with professionals who bring unique support to the North Center, and leverages her own network of community decision-makers, programs benefit; a recent teacher appreciation event raised funds and awareness for the Community Schools program.
