2016-2017 Operational Plan

In 2013, the Department of Community Development launched Decade to Doorways (D2D), a community initiative to end homelessness by the year 2023. It is based on a Ten Year Strategic Plan developed by over 200 community members that involves action and collaboration from many different organizations and individuals across the county. Three years into the plan, the initiative has made significant progress, but members were not clear about what their priorities should be for the next phase of their work.
