The timing was right to forge a strategic planning partnership with Open Door Advisors. They guided AFC to identify our strategic priorities and to help set goals in a meaningful and measurable way. They actively listened to us in a way that resulted in a robust vision and mission to carry out our work for the past 5+ years that is embodied in our strategic plan. The process was strategic and collaborative and engaged our staff, Board, community partners and funders. It has been a very positive and productive work experience. During the pandemic we have remained aligned with our mission and focused on our staff and the clients we serve.
