Our New Strategic Plan
We crafted this evidence-informed blueprint to guide and prioritize programs and services to address public health needs in the communities we serve. We developed the plan through four phases:
Vision & Commitment
We took stock of our past and current efforts to meet needs and began a process to explore and articulate our guiding vision, mission, and values.
Understanding
We conducted an internal and external consultation and received input from 847 clients and residents, staff and management, Board of Health members, and community partners.
Direction
We developed draft priorities, goals and strategies to align efforts, cultivate partnerships, and allocated resources to address public health needs.
Strategy
