Today we will continue our Sustainable Leaders series and have a Talk Story with Rob Van Tassell, the President and CEO of Catholic Charities Hawaii. Not only will we learn about their expansive services, we will zero in on housing for the people of Hawaii. Robert “Rob” Van Tassell is a leader with more than 20 years of experience in non-profit management, including social service, affordable housing, community development and organizational leadership. Named as CEO and President of Catholic Charities Hawai‘i in November 2019, Rob leads a statewide agency of more than 40 programs and services serving our 80,000 clients a year. As with other social service agencies and non-profit organizations, the demand for assistance has increased exponentially during this COVID-19 pandemic and economic downturn. The leadership team at CCH has risen to the occasion amplifying and multiplying their reach with new programs, innovative technology solutions, and an increase in advocacy for those in most need. Prior to joining Catholic Charities Hawaii (CCH), Rob served as a vice president at Catholic Charities in Seattle. In this role, he led the development of over 30 housing projects and their related social services. A collaborative leader, Rob focuses on building assets and wealth for, by and within communities. Rob’s previous experience includes positions in the private sector such as developing affordable housing, Accounting Director at Starbucks Coffee Company and Accounting Manager for Blue Cross. He holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of Washington. He and his wife reside in Honolulu, have three daughters and one grandson.
