The NeighborImpact Board of Directors is excited to announce a series of listening sessions to gather valuable input for the organization’s upcoming two-year strategic plan. These listening sessions will take place throughout the month of August. Community members and stakeholders will share their perspectives, ideas and suggestions about how NeighborImpact can best serve low- and moderate-income residents and the communities in which they reside.
NeighborImpact welcomes attendees to join in person, but for those who are unable to attend physically, there will be an option to participate via Zoom. This hybrid approach ensures that everyone has the opportunity to contribute their insights.
The listening sessions will be centered around key questions designed to gather valuable feedback:
- How well is NeighborImpact currently meeting the needs of people in this community?
- What are the biggest challenges in serving economically challenged people in your community?
- What can NeighborImpact do or do better to help fill those gaps?
- What is the best way to distribute information about services to low- and moderate-income individuals and families in your community?
- Are there any crucial aspects or opportunities that NeighborImpact might be overlooking?
NeighborImpact is committed to making a positive impact on the lives of individuals and families facing economic challenges, and the listening sessions aim to create a stronger, more inclusive strategic plan that addresses the unique needs of each community.
The organization cordially invites all concerned individuals, community representatives, partners, and stakeholders to participate in this significant event and contribute their valuable thoughts and experiences.
