Strategic Plan
A strategic plan outlines an organization’s long-term goals, objectives, and strategies, acting as a roadmap for decision-making and resource allocation. During the final months of 2021, the entire Project Success staff and the entire board met to share ideas about the future vision of the organization, creating a plan that outlines our direction, goals, and priorities over the next three and a half years. Led by an incredible team of facilitators from HueLife, a small group of board and staff combined these ideas into our 2022-2025 Strategic Plan which is outlined below.
