Strategic Planning Process for 2024-2028

Status Update

As we embark on the journey to shape our new strategic plan, your insights and feedback are crucial. We are committed to creating a plan that reflects our collective vision and strengthens our future direction. To ensure that all voices are heard, we are conducting a survey that will allow you to share your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions.
