Communities at Work

Together with the Board, I am delighted to introduce Communities at Work’s 2019 – 2022 Strategic Plan. It sets out the priorities and themes for the organisation over the next three years. In our new Strategic Plan, we embrace ongoing inquiry, reflection and action with an eye toward future goals and the journey to excellence and positive social change. This plan is a living document, so in addition to identifying strategic priorities, we maintain a flexible approach that allows us to take advantage of opportunities that arise during the execution of the plan.
