Who We Are
The Foundation for Child Development (the Foundation) works at the nexus of research, policy, and practice to enhance the lives of young children from birth to age eight. Our mission is to harness the power of research to ensure that all young children benefit from early learning experiences that affirm their individual, family, and community assets, fortify them against harmful consequences arising from poverty, racism, prejudice, and discrimination, and strengthen their developmental potential. Under the leadership of its President, Vivian Tseng, the Foundation is embarking on its next chapter as a small organization with a long legacy of providing a “big voice” of “wide influence and impact” for America’s children. The Foundation has approximately $120 million in assets, an annual grants budget of $3.5 million, four full-time staff and a small corps of consultants and plans to grow to 7 full-time staff in the next year.
Vice President of Finance and Administration
The Vice President of Finance and Administration (VPFA) will serve as a strategic partner to the Foundation’s President and will report to her.

The VPFA also supports the President in strategic planning and is the executive liaison to the Board of Director’s Finance Committee and Audit Committee.
