Strategic plan

Every 5 years, the clinic’s staff and Board of Directors review and revise the clinic’s strategic directions and set clear goals to guide our work.

Our first step is asking if there are any legal needs that aren’t being met or that are emerging in our community. We examine developments in the laws and programs that impact people living on a low income. And we review demographic information and research studies.  (View our Mission, Vision, and Values.)

Next, based on all that we’ve learned, we develop our high level strategic goals to guide our work for the next 5 years.

Each year we create an internal Action Plan and use it to monitor our progress towards our strategic plan.

Our strategic plan and directions for 2022-2026:
