Sierra Strategic Plan (2005-2006)

This document is the Strategic Plan developed by the Sierra County Children and Families Commission to comply with the State Guidelines and the intent of the Children and Families Act of 1998. The following pages represent the work accomplished by the County Commission since its formation in January 1999. The Commission recognizes that the Plan is broad in scope and covers the possibilities of incorporating several potential objectives and strategies in its ongoing efforts to meet the needs of Sierra County children and families. It has been and will continue to be reviewed and revised annually as work continues and the community identifies further needs and objectives.

In the four years the Commission has been active, it has seen no evidence of need to make major changes in goals, objectives and strategies. In this Summer 2004 revision, changes have been made to update the existing plan and set the stage for the next four years of funding and programmatic activities for Commission as well as grantee projects. Primarily the Commission’s plans for the coming four years entail building on existing progress, continuing to improve the scope and quality of existing programs and services, and completing projects that are underway.
