Our Approach
In developing this strategic plan, the Community Health Network of Western North Carolina (CHNWNC) reviewed its current situation, the region’s needs for services, and the members desired future position. The purpose of the Strategic Plan is to set and document goals and strategies for the future. The goals and strategies, when accomplished, are directed at the collaborative programs and initiatives that will better serve the needs of CHNWNC members and the communities they serve.
Key steps in the Strategic Planning process are outlined below.
CHNWNC engaged the services of a Planning Consultant familiar with federally qualified health centers. The Board directed the overall planning process, with the guidance and facilitation of the Consultant. Planning Workshops were held with board members and key staff members from each health center, to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats; review trends in the local and state legislative environment; confirm the mission and vision statements; review the service area needs and identify potential strategic initiatives. Additional meetings were held to identify the goals, strategies, and action steps. Strategies were refined and action steps were finalized.
