Using an Appreciative Inquiry Process, in 2022 the CLS worked with an external facilitator to engage nearly 100 stakeholders in conversations about the organization over the next five years. In a series of interviews and focus groups, people were asked to share:
- Strengths of the organization – what does CLS do well?
- Opportunities – what opportunities exist for growth, change and improvement?
- Aspirations – what are the greatest hopes and dreams for the individuals CLS supports, and their families/networks?
- Results – how do we measure progress on our opportunities and aspirations?
