The Compliance Alliance

05/31/2026

Same Mission. Same Name. New Leadership.

Announcing an exciting new chapter for The Compliance Alliance. Effective June 1, 2026, Jessica Hobbs steps into the role of President & Chief Architect of The Compliance Alliance — a timely transition for TCA’s next phase of continued growth.

Jessica is not new to TCA. She has helped shape the systems, strategy, and vision behind our work and has been instrumental in advancing the industry standard compliance risk visibility framework. This framework is helping organizations see compliance not as a burden, but as a measurable driver of quality, operational excellence, and risk management.

While I’ll be stepping away from day-to-day operations, I’ll remain on the advisory board, supporting Jessica as our mission continues forward.

Stay tuned as this is only the beginning. We have more to share in the weeks ahead as Jessica begins unveiling what’s next for TCA.

Please join me in congratulating Jessica as she leads TCA into its next chapter.

Too good not to share. Lynn Wenger has had the opportunity to preview many of The Director's Club offerings and sit in on several too. They are affordable, content packed and proven strategies and tactics that are stress tested in their own centers. Plus there’s an office hour option too for questions so you can get the implementation support needed. Check it out. ⬇️

At some point, every director hits this moment:

“I can’t keep doing it like this.”

Not because you’re doing anything wrong…

But because you’re doing too much on your own.

You don’t have to.

🤔What’s more expensive: compliance… or non-compliance?
💰You may be surprised at the answer.

The cost of non-compliance shows up as unexpected—and unplanned—financial impacts: lawsuits, corrective action plans, reputational damage, and insurance increases to name a few.

When that happens, compliance suddenly becomes a top priority.

Start with data. Weigh and quantify the cost before it hits your bottom line.
