What is a Strategic Plan?

A comprehensive roadmap that defines an organization's long-term vision, core mission, and the specific goals needed to achieve meaningful impact. For a non-profit like us it articulates where you want to be in the next 3-5 years and outlines the concrete steps to get there.

Why Strategic Planning is Essential for Non-Profits

Strategic planning transforms passion into sustainable impact for arts and social justice organizations. Without a clear strategic framework we may find ourselves scattered, struggling with resource allocation, or losing sight of our core mission. A solid strategic plan helps us articulate our unique long term value to donors, volunteers, and community partners.

Building Organizational Resilience

Strategic planning also ensures long-term sustainability and community relevance. It provides a framework for making difficult decisions about programming, partnerships, and resource allocation. The process itself builds organizational alignment and creates shared ownership of the vision. This collaborative approach strengthens our roots with the community and increases the likelihood of achieving lasting social impact through the transformative power of the arts.

Our Plan

Help us plan the next 5 years!

Our process can be roughly separated into three phases:

1. Information Gathering / Community Feedback

   1. 3 Focus Groups

   2. Community Survey

   3. Interviews and Meetings Last Year

2. Process Input and Write Plan

3. Communicate the Plan to the Community and Implement

The focus groups are already underway and we have launched the community survey as well!
We encourage anyone to fill out the survey and have your voice heard for years to come.

Thank You!
