The Strategic Plan:
The strategic plan for the grant is to be developed within the first 9 months of the grant period. Systems transformation within the state is a complex undertaking and the process involves principle players at a high level within state government as well as other key stakeholders, advocates, and consumers.
To ensure a comprehensive and inclusive process for strategic planning, a Systems Transformation Steering Committee of individuals composed of consumers, advocates, interested stakeholders and state staff met January 23-24, 2006. During the two-day meeting, the team participated in the decision-making process regarding the four goals and objectives of the grant.

A subgroup of the team met February 22-23, 2006, to develop mission and vision statements and the strategic plan. Strategies, action steps, outputs and outcomes were discussed and defined. Once completed, the written plan will be sent to each member of the Strategic Planning Team for final review and posted on this website.
