Planning and Assessment

Strategic Plan

A Message from the Executive Director

The Agency’s strategic planning process allowed the Board and management staff the opportunity to thoughtfully review our mission, vision, and value statements. The review was conducted with the thought of developing a strategic plan that would make a major impact on the population that we serve. The 2008-2011 strategic plan reflects the Agency’s new visionary leadership and the dedication of the current staff. This plan reflects how our vision and dedication will come together for the good of those in poverty; those overcoming poverty; and create opportunities to prevent poverty.

You will note that the plan’s goals are straightforward with objectives that clearly support them. You will also note that each goal and objective gives meaning to “serving and empowering Lorain County residents in Need”----our Agency’s mission.

We proudly share this strategic plan with you hoping that you can become a part of our efforts to move Lorain County in a positive direction.

Community Needs Assessment

The Lorain County Community Action Agency (LCCAA) has been serving Lorain County since 1966. To stay current with community needs, the agency conducts a comprehensive community needs assessment every three years. Within our agency, the completed assessment informs program decision making, serves to substantiate funding requests, helps pinpoint our pursuit of collaborative relationships, and feeds directly into our strategic planning process.

The Agency wishes to thank each person that responded to our Community Assessment Survey. The information you provided has enriched our organization and its’ ability to serve low-income households throughout the county. Based on the anonymous nature of the survey process, we were not able to extend individual thank you’s. We sincerely appreciate your participation and welcome your feedback.
