ACTION: Council Support to copy all Council Members with these documents via email: List of Values, Draft List of Goals, and the Shared Values and Guiding Principles.

7. New Comprehensive Plan Objectives
The Committee will begin development of new 3-Year Plan objectives.
Robert Whirry reviewed with the Committee that this week and at the next meeting the group will be focusing on completion of the Plan Objectives.

Group will review the objectives as Robert will take notes and draft up the document for the next meeting. HRSA wants the objectives to be time-phased and measurable. Group discussed that objectives in the prior Plan were somewhat vague and not considered classic objectives.

Group discussed that without a strategic planning process that it is unproductive to provide objectives that are too specific. Group discussed that this plan would provide the foundation for a more thorough and thoughtful strategic plan.

Group discussed that most of resources have been identified, and funding cuts are a reality, and the situation is not about doing new things. There may be objectives around managing reductions.


Committee agreed that the Council has not been completely successful in the past at identifying other resources and funding streams and going after those funds. Committee discussed whether this should come from the Council or the AIDS Office. Committee discussed that this is as much a three-year plan for the grantee as it is for the Council and should reflect goals and objectives of the grantee as well. Robert indicated that he has asked for input from the grantee, which will be brought back to the working group.

Group discussed tentative objectives for each of the identified goals for both Long-Term Systems, Planning, Evaluation, and Service Goals; and Short-Term Care and Treatment Goals.

Robert noted discussions and suggestions made by working group members and agreed to bring draft objectives to the next working group meeting for revisions. Robert encouraged working group members to send him via email any additional thoughts or suggestions during the next two weeks and he will attempt to incorporate those into the draft document.
