Belonging
Belonging refers to the feeling of being accepted, valued, and included within a group or organization. It goes beyond mere inclusion by ensuring that individuals feel safe to express their authentic selves without fear of judgment or exclusion. Belonging is about creating an environment where diverse perspectives are not only welcomed but celebrated, fostering a sense of psychological safety and connection among all members. At CHF we believe that this sense of belonging is crucial for enhancing employee engagement, satisfaction, and overall organizational effectiveness.
Working as the Manager of Evaluation at CHF is truly my dream job. It allows me to collaborate with incredible sector partners and provides a unique opportunity to view the Homeless Serving System of Care from a broader perspective.
