Strategic Planning/Policies and Procedures Committee Meeting Report
Wednesday, June 13, 2001 

The committee met at the Family Development Center from 11:30 AM to 12:45 PM.

Members present: Connie Hyatt, Jan Laine, Brenda Butterfield, and Carol Huard.

The group decided to use a process proposed by Jan Laine. It begins with the mission statement followed by an action plan and a scope of work that encompasses timelines, resources needed, and persons accountable.

Our first action was to revise the mission of the committee based on the process we decided to apply.

§         Develop an action plan for the goals and priorities established by the Prevention Works! membership.

§         Create a scope of work for Prevention Works! that provides continuity to the activities of the organization over time and ensures all matters are dealt with in a consistent fashion.

§         Identify gaps in the plan and recommend a set of possible actions to close those gaps.

Next we addressed the mission statement of Prevention Works! and offer three proposed mission statements for consideration and/or adoption.

The mission of Prevention Works is to 

1.      Promote awareness and activities, which contribute to the elimination of substance abuse, child abuse and neglect, and violence. (Current mission statement)

2.      Reduce risk factors, which lead to child abuse and neglect, substance abuse, and violence by assisting families with children from conception through four years of age, by strengthening protective factors, and enhancing the resilience of children, youth and families in Clallam County.

3.      Reduce risk factors, which lead to child abuse and neglect, substance abuse, and violence by assisting families with children from conception to adulthood, by strengthening protective factors, and enhancing the resilience of children, youth and families in Clallam County. 

The committee will meet on Wednesday, July 11, 2001 at the Family Development Center from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Bring a snack to share if you plan to attend. At that time we will undertake the task of creating an action plan.
