Equitable Strategies to Meet Your Mission

**This workshop is part of our 2022 Organizational Leadership Series. To register for the Full Series click here. 

How does your organization achieve its mission and what does it mean to have a strategy in place that is equitable? This workshop will help you better define, articulate, and measure the change that your organization’s program activities are designed to bring about. Leave the workshop with the tools to clearly describe your mission strategy and evidence of success, and a framework for making data-driven decisions to hone your strategy going forward.
