Tom Woll was a leader in the Human Services field in
Northeast Ohio for 38 years. He was
responsible for Behavioral Health Services for Catholic Charities for 25
years. Then he undertook the challenge,
on behalf of Catholic Charities, to oversee the merger of 21 Catholic Charities
organizations and to work with them to form an integrated service delivery
system for Northeast Ohio, covering 3,500 square miles.
He left his work with Catholic Charities in 2010 and
established the Strategic Change Initiative.
Under the framework of this Initiative, Tom has worked to help Human
Service organizations to successfully prepare for the future. He has extensively interviewed public and nonprofit
leaders, elected public officials, practitioners delivering services for us and
youths and families receiving services from us from across the country to
determine what we need to be doing to successfully prepare for the future. Tom has assisted 120 organizations in the
development of their Strategic Plans.
For the last six years Tom has also served as the
facilitator for the various Transformation Projects that have been undertaken
under the auspices of the Alliance for Strong Families and Communities. In his work with the various Alliance
Transformation Projects, Tom has assisted 65 organizations in their efforts to
transform what they do and how they do what they do. Tom is also a Board Member of ACYCP.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to create a course?
