Through a collaborative and inclusive process, we developed a clear Vision, Mission, Strategic Pillars, and Core Values that reflect our shared purpose and priorities. These elements not only articulate who we are and what we aim to achieve, but also serve as the compass for how we allocate resources, make decisions, and measure success moving forward.
