Director of Weighing In

The Children's Mercy Hospital and Clinics

Kansas City, MO

(posted 10/23/2009)

At Children’s Mercy Hospitals and Clinics, you can be more than the Director of Weighing In.  You can be a reason we’re among the nation’s best children’s hospitals and a reason parents continue to choose Children’s Mercy.  Come to work here where you’re not just an employee, you’re a reason.

As the Director of Weighing In, you will lead implementation and further development of the collaborative’s strategic plan.  You will also have responsibility for leading the development of funding sources through grants, businesses and philanthropic groups, leading community-based participatory research, managing relations with the Weighing In steering committee, advisory board members, and relevant departments at Children’s Mercy Hospital; including Community Relations, Pediatrics, Government Relations and Resource Development.

Weighing In is a community childhood obesity collaborative which was created in 2004 to be a mechanism for disseminating best practice programs in prevention to the Kansas City community, to provide networking opportunities for the varied healthcare, school, public health, managed care and community organizations with an interest in childhood obesity prevention, and to support collaborative project development and implementation through working groups. Children’s Mercy Weight Management Services and the Weighing In collaborative embrace the social-ecological model for childhood obesity, and seek to influence multiple sectors of the Kansas City community to influence prevention of childhood obesity.
