OUR WORK PLAN CONSISTS OF 4 KEY INITIATIVES: 1) RIVERFRONT: INCREASE UTILIZATION AND OPPORTUNITIES ON THE RIVERFRONT TO CREATE A WORLD CLASS DESTINATION, WHICH ALLOWS US TO CAPITALIZE ON OUR GREATEST NATURAL RESOURCE TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF PLACE WHILE ALSO SERVING AS AN ECONOMIC ENGINE FOR OUR REGION. WE WILL ACHIEVE THIS BY ACTING AS A UNIFIER TO COMBINE THE UNIQUE RIVERFRONT PLANS OF EACH OF OUR COMMUNITIES INTO ONE REGIONAL VISION THAT EXCITES OUR COMMUNITY AND ENCOURAGES FURTHER INVESTMENT AND UTILIZATION. 2) YOUTH ENGAGEMENT: INCREASE THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS WHO REPORT THE REGION PROVIDES QUALITY OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEM TO BE SUCCESSFUL, BECAUSE WE KNOW ALL YOUTH NEED TO FEEL SAFE, HAVE PLACES TO ENGAGE WITH ONE ANOTHER, ACCESS TO EDUCATION PROGRAMMING ALIGNED TO CAREER ASPIRATIONS, AND UNDERSTANDING OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR SUCCESS WITHIN THE REGION.

WE WILL WORK TO DEVELOP AND SHARE RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE COMMUNITY TO IMPROVE INCLUSIVE PRACTICES.
