How we are structured
Our organizational structure is composed of seven distinct operating areas – Finance and Infrastructure, Growth Strategy and Development, Human Assets, Marketing, Public Affairs, Program, and Regional Operations and Regions. Each area is led by a senior leader who sits on our operating committee, Teach For America’s management team, which assumes ultimate responsibility for the organization’s performance, operations, and ongoing effectiveness.
The Program team (which includes Recruitment, Admissions, Teacher Preparation, Support, and Development, and Alumni Affairs), leads the efforts to reach our organizational goals of scale and diversity, student achievement, alumni leadership, and alumni engagement, in partnership with the other operating areas of Teach For America.
