Strategic Planning Process

Strategic Planning Process

The 2022-2027 SACAC Strategic Plan was approved by the SACAC Board of Directors on March 9, 2022. The plan is the culmination of several months of listening and discussion with feedback gathered at multiple SACAC Board meetings, multiple Strategic Planning Committee meetings, a Wall Crawl activity at the 2021 NACAC affiliate meeting in Seattle, six Zoom listening sessions with members, and a November 2021 survey to SACAC membership.
