Jaymie Kahn-Rapp, MPA, MSEd, LMHC

Jaymie Kahn-Rapp serves as Assistant Vice President of Community Health and Recovery at Family & Children’s Association (FCA), where she provides strategic leadership for a diverse portfolio of programs that support recovery, promote community health, and expand access to essential services. She joined FCA in 2017, bringing more than two decades of experience in behavioral health, HIV services, and community-based public health programs in New York City.

Since joining FCA, Ms. Kahn-Rapp has played a key role in expanding the organization’s response to substance use and community health needs across Long Island. Under her leadership, FCA’s original Addiction, Treatment and Recovery Division more than doubled in size. In 2023, she oversaw the division’s restructuring into two specialized divisions designed to strengthen service delivery, organizational focus, and responsiveness to the communities FCA serves, assuming leadership of the newly established Community Health and Recovery Division.

Since the restructuring, Ms. Kahn-Rapp has continued to grow and expand the Community Health and Recovery Division, strategically assessing services and emerging needs to identify opportunities to address gaps in care. Under her leadership, the division has significantly expanded its recovery support services and initiatives, overdose prevention and education, crisis recovery peer navigation, and HIV, hepatitis C (HCV), and sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and linkage-to-care services. She has also developed strong working relationships with key government and community partners, including the New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) and Suffolk County, strengthening FCA’s ability to respond to evolving needs and build effective pathways to care and recovery.

A strategic and collaborative leader in the nonprofit health and human services sector, Ms. Kahn-Rapp brings extensive experience in organizational growth, system transformation, Medicaid redesign, program development, and data-informed decision-making. Throughout her career, she has focused on building sustainable programs, strengthening strategic partnerships, and translating emerging needs into responsive, accessible services.

Ms. Kahn-Rapp holds a Master of Public Administration from Baruch College and a Master of Science in Education in Rehabilitation Counseling from Hofstra University. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and has held leadership roles across several nonprofit health organizations.

At FCA, Ms. Kahn-Rapp remains committed to advancing innovative, community-based approaches that improve access to services, strengthen health outcomes, and create multiple pathways to recovery for individuals and families across Long Island.
