2021 Goals
The GWH Board recently approved a 3-year strategic plan and we are extremely excited to be working on the Annual Plan for Year 1, a plan that builds a strong foundation for future years. The pursuit of accreditation by the Council on Accreditation is a major focus of Year 1, as is the implementation of a Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) system across all campus programs. Other areas of focus include Board engagement and development, robust staff training and continued stakeholder outreach. This is a pivotal year for GWH as we continue to assess current programming to be sure it meets our mission and look for other opportunities to lend a helping hand.
