ANCA recently conducted an external survey asking stakeholders and regional leaders to help us assess our presence in the region. Special emphasis was placed on gathering data about ANCA’s mission, stature, effectiveness, and present and future role in the Adirondack North Country. The Technical Assistance Center at SUNY Plattsburgh (TAC) helped design and implement the survey and conduct phone interviews.

This process has enhanced our confidence that ANCA’s mission, goals and objectives are on the right track while clarifying the need for more strategic focus on how we operate and what programs are most important. ANCA’s board and staff have also worked over several planning sessions to provide input into this process.
We are using this input to help guide the development of a revised five year strategic plan, in order to best meet the needs of the communities and the people we serve. Our 2010-2015 strategy encapsulates this new focus. It defines ANCA’s road map for the next two years, and establishes our strategic intent for the next five years.
