The Community Action Partnership of North Central Missouri (CAPNCM) welcomes a new executive director, Dr. Christopher A. Small. who recently began with the agency. Dr. Small comes to CAPNCM with a wide variety of leadership experiences, and a background of service. Most recently, he was Training Manager with the Missouri Community Action Network (Missouri CAN) in Jefferson City. Missouri CAN is the statewide association for all nineteen community action agencies across our state. While at Missouri CAN, his responsibilities included designing, training and professional development opportunities to meet the needs of all community action agencies in Missouri. In addition, he was responsible for event planning including the flagship annual conference.
When asked why he sought the position, Small says he jumped at the chance to lead again. He says he loves teaching those around him and working to bring out the potential in all. He says we are all leaders and can make a much bigger positive impact than we imagine for those most in need across our communities in the nine counties we serve.
