The Buffalo County 2030 Vision is a beginning to take shape. A community vision looks to our collective future and shares a common mission where all residents thrive. Our communities’ past successes tell the story and build a strong foundation for more work, better work, leading to our best work.
We have spent the last year hosting conversations:
What are we learning?
- People need food.
- People need housing.
- People need caregiving.
- People need health care.
- People need mental health care.
- Helpers need training on mental health care.
- People are looking for resources.
- Resources are not easily found or understood.
- Barriers exist in accessing resources.
- In times of crisis, more support is needed.
- Resources need to be promoted.
- Voices of lived experience need to inform our work.
- People are valued.
- Collective Impact is the model for this work leading us to 2030.
How will we create impact?
Too many times, communities focus on isolated impact to solve complex issues. Moving from isolated impact to Collective Impact involves helping partners to;
- Point to a shared agenda,
- Know how to connect,
- See many sectors involved,
- Know the benefits when issues are solved together,
- Give voice to those being served,
- See work through others perspective,
- Give space for others to join conversations,
- Celebrate success together and for each other.
