Erin Stucky, Chief Operations Officer, has worked with KVC Health Systems for over 22 years, helping children and families through many different roles. She joined KVC as a case manager immediately after earning her bachelor’s in social work, and after continual development and experience at every level, has risen to this senior leadership position. Erin’s journey at KVC has included promotions from case manager to supervisor in 2001, to regional director in 2005, then to President of KVC Kansas in 2008, Executive Vice President of KVC Health Systems in 2012, and COO in 2016. She is a product of the kind of leadership cultivation in which KVC takes great pride.

As Chief Operations Officer, Erin helps to improve outcomes for children and families by working in partnership with the executive team to provide vision, leadership, and management necessary to successfully implement the strategic plan throughout the corporate infrastructure and its five subsidiaries. She also directly oversees the Human Resources, Marketing/ Communications, Development, Facilities and Ball Conference Center teams. She relies on the experience she gained in her early days with KVC, just after Kansas became the first state to privatize child welfare services in 1996, to ensure excellence. She learned from the ground up as the process unfolded and as both KVC and the state continually raised the bar in service outcomes and delivery.

Erin also was a fellow in the Annie E. Casey Foundation’s Child and Family Fellowship, an executive leadership program that develops leaders to improve life circumstances and create positive outcomes for children and families.

Erin is licensed as a clinical social worker and has served as an adjunct professor at the University of Kansas School of Social Welfare, the same university where she earned both her undergraduate and master’s degrees in social work.
