Facilitated Strategy Session

Project details

What we need
  • Expert third party advice on process or managerial changes, geographic or programmatic expansion, potential pivots, or general strategic planning
  • Facilitation of an intensive, one-day strategic planning session with staff and/or Board
  • Note: If necessary, a follow-up strategic planning session may be scheduled
What we have in place
  • We are currently working on creating goals for this visioning process with Maine Black Community Development's board and staff.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,465 , allowing us to focus on supporting black Mainers through our research, policy and advocacy, and food justice efforts.

Maine Black Community Development is a new organization. We need a facilitated session with a third party to think through our mission, goals, and priority work areas. We are also starting a research project where some visioning would be very helpful.
