The WECHU is focused on building new and enhancing existing partnerships to create a healthier community.

Partnerships are a valuable way to support a model of shared responsibility and collaboration within our community. This strategic priority steers the WECHU to take a more thorough approach to new and existing partnerships by creating and implementing feedback mechanisms that will allow us to: identify value added opportunities, effectively address service gaps, and maximize the effectiveness of our partnerships.

Internal partnering was also identified as a key objective, with the goal of increased recognition and formalization of partnership opportunities between departments within the organization.

Objective Goal
Increase the effectiveness of partnerships through formal feedback mechanisms. 100% of program/service-driven departments implement a formal feedback process with at least one external partnership by 2021.
Increase the number of internal partnerships. At least 20% of activities in the operational plan identify formal internal partnerships by 2021.
