Report to the Community – 2nd Quarter

2022 Action Plan – 2nd Quarter Report to the Community

To reach larger Agency goals, Summit DD uses a longer-term, three-year planning cycle called the Long-Range Plan (LRP). Each year, the LRP is broken down into actionable items, known as the Action Plan, to gauge progress. Our 2022 Action Plan is the first year of the 2022–2024 Long-Range Plan.
