Funders:

Stride is currently in the process of creating a new strategic plan for the next three years. The purpose of a strategic plan is to identify goals for the organization and develop a plan to achieve those goals.

Our Vision: Stride envisions a world in which barriers to employment have been eliminated for people living with mental health and/or addictions challenges.

Our Mission: Stride is committed to providing person centered support to empower people living with mental health and/or addiction challenges to gain and maintain meaningful employment.

Stride strives to provide high quality, timely, and needed employment services to the community. Obtaining input from members of our broader community is a critical step in us better understanding the needs of the community. Your voice is very valuable to us in this process.

REQUEST: Please help us better understand how we are meeting your needs and what we can be doing differently by answering a few questions for us. This survey may take you 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses are anonymous. Please do not provide any identifying information in your response.

You can access the survey by clicking this link: https://forms.office.com/r/EK6eewcAq7

Thank you in advance for your time. The information you provide will help us better understand the needs of our community while planning our strategy for the next 3 years. This survey will close on January 21, 2022. The final strategic plan will be shared with the community on our website in May 2022.
