Kristyn Peck
Kristyn PeckFormer CEO – West Michigan Partnership for Children
West Michigan Partnership for Children (WMPC) sought the expertise of J.K. Elder & Associates (JKEA) as we developed performance-based contracts for our subcontracted private child welfare agencies. JKEA brought a depth of expertise in developing performance benchmarks that allowed for strategic focus on key practice areas that led to improved child-level outcomes. Our satisfaction with the engagement led us to partner with JKEA a year later as we worked towards accreditation by COA. JKEA’s expert team led us through the development of policies and procedures that met best practice standards and coaching us on what to expect during the accreditation process. The result was our two-year-old agency achieved accreditation!
