Having spent most of his life in San Diego, CA, Rudolph A. Johnson, III, knows all too well the impact that Neighborhood House Association (NHA) programs have on a family’s life. He is inspired by the struggles that families, children, and seniors face each day to make ends meet, and knows that the programs and services NHA provides make a huge difference in their lives and in the community as a whole. As a child, Mr. Johnson participated in NHA’s Federal Head Start program. Today, he leads the organization with great passion and a vision that has transformed NHA into one of the nation’s model human services agency.

As an accomplished senior executive, Johnson has a career record of providing business insight, transformational leadership, and strategic vision. Johnson spent nine years working for the City of San Diego, and eight years at the San Diego Convention Center—four of those eight years as General Manager.

He was appointed as President and CEO of the Neighborhood House Association in 2006, overseeing one of the largest multi-purpose human services agencies in San Diego County. With 23 programs, 800 employees, a $93 million budget, and an economic impact of over $200 million, NHA has grown to be a major economic engine under Johnson’s leadership.

At NHA, Johnson has led an agency-wide organizational transformation that has resulted in efficient fiscal practices, infrastructure improvements, employee well-being and innovative business solutions for nonprofit agencies. Under his leadership, NHA has begun the operation of five new programs: Geriatric Specialty, Project In-Reach, the Homework Center, San Diego County Black Infant Health, and the NHA College Academy. NHA’s Nutrition Services program received national recognition from First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move!” campaign in 2012 for fighting childhood obesity with a healthy, balanced, preschool menu.
