Our Strategic Plan gives us direction in our work and helps us to bring our purpose to life.
This is an important period for our organisation, as we look ahead to our 200 year celebration in 2013. Our Strategic Plans provide a bridge from where we are now to our vision for the future.
Our current strategic focus
Our continued organisational growth has a clear purpose: to reach more people in more places, bringing our experience and resources to disadvantaged communities that are at risk of being left behind.
We are also focusing on strengthening our ‘voice’ and broadening our reach so that we can claim the right to speak on a national platform about the social issues we’re addressing. By investing in the people and systems we need to do our work, we can build leadership capabilities that match the passion of our people with the skills they need to be effective.
