United Caring Services Selects Executive Director
An Evansville native has been named executive director of one of the city’s highest-profile nonprofits. Jason Emmerson will lead United Caring Services, which has six programs for the homeless in the community.
Emmerson, a Reitz High School Indiana University Kelley School of Business graduate, previously spent more than a dozen years in community service and nonprofit leadership positions.
UCS says Emmerson’s responsibilities include serving as an advocate for homelessness issues, issues of homelessness, direct fund-development and overall program operations.
“Evansville is my hometown. I am happy to be back in the community I grew up in and look forward to this opportunity to advocate for and champion the valuable people served by UCS," Emmerson said.
The organization changed its name from United Caring Shelters in 2013.
