The NAME Board of Directors is pleased to announce that we have launched a search for our next Executive Director. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a growing, national level not-for-profit advocating for student health through Medicaid reimbursement.
The Executive Director oversees NAME operations and activities and is responsible for providing strategic direction and support to the organization’s many volunteers. We are seeking a collaborative, mission-driven leader with nonprofit and/or management experience to provide a high level of positive visibility for NAME.
We invite qualified candidates—and those who may know someone well-suited for this role—to learn more and apply.
A copy of the amended bylaws may be accessed with the link below. The board voted on 12/17/2025 to approve the bylaws.
Yesterday was a celebration! Today is about action!
Yesterday we celebrated the release of the new guide. It was a monumental day for our field. The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act charged CMS with this task. It allowed opportunities for NAME to engage in meaningful conversations around challenges and barriers. We received a call from CMS thanking our organization for the part we played in its development. We began conversations with CMS, in reference to this guide, last July. We were thankful that they were willing to participate in our conference, where many of you were able to ask specific questions and share your barriers. NAME was asked toform specific focus groups over the past several months and many of you were willing to participate. Thank you for your willingness to contribute to the process and share your experiences.
