HCH Goals and Strategies

Summary: Goals and Key Strategies
HCH drafted goals and strategies based on stakeholder input and SWOT analysis results in a full-day workshop using a “causal” strategy mapping process that links actions to outcomes. Goals are written as outcomes and look out 10-15 years. Key strategies advance the goals, are 3-7 years, and are supported by many shorter-term supporting actions. This approach helps us see what we can do about opportunities and concerns, then commit to focused actions that will lead to agreed-upon, desired outcomes.

Below is a summary of the draft long-term goals and mid-term key strategies. Following these are goal-strategy clusters with brief descriptions and questions for your feedback.
