Our Strategic Vision
From Assessment
To Action
United Way and our community began the transition to a new model of work with an assessment of community needs. It examined the changing demographics and health and human service needs through the lens of health, education, income and basic needs. After reviewing the findings of this assessment, our board of directors identified the most pressing local needs to drive the focus of our work. Read the assessment summary to learn more.
A New United Way
Our United Way has changed its approach to solving problems in the Capital Region. In 2016, we adopted a collective impact model of work. It requires that everyone work together in partnership to find new and innovative ways to address the most pressing needs in our community.
