SECOORA is in the process of updating our 5 Year Strategic Plan as it expires this year. The Strategic Plan guides SECOORA activities and priorities. The plan will be presented to the membership for voting during our 2021 Annual Meeting (date TBD).
Since the fall, SECOORA has been working with the Board and a Strategic Planning Committee to amend the plan. A part of this effort is prioritizing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (also known as DEI). We need your help.
We are asking you please complete our short 12 question survey to help us understand Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity in our network.

We are hoping to find avenues for partnerships and explore how we can amplify your institutions initiatives. Deadline to complete the survey is January 29, 2021. We appreciate your input.
Please contact debra@secooraorgpact.wpengine.com if you have questions.
