SFNFCI 20-Year Vision
The SFNFCI 20-Year Vision (Vision 2034) was created using a detailed visioning exercise focused on growth and sustainability. This exercise helped us envision the possibilities of our work and the impact it could have in the community.
It included examination of international trends, environmental and legal, political and socioeconomic trends and their implications, as well as trends in technology. From this process, 5-year milestones/broad goals were created, and from there, a 5-Year Strategic Plan was created. The Institute will continue to develop these 5-year milestones as we work toward achieving our 2034 Vision.
Some of the highlights of our 20-Year Vision include an expansion of our reach by adding membership categories and/or providing services to a wider range of organizations, as well as working with other agencies in Education, Social, Justice and Health as part of creating a more holistic approach to the family and child.
