There never was DUST ON OUR 2015-2018 STRAT PLAN! From day one we were working hard on accomplishing goals for the organization in an effort to better serve Seniors in. our Territory. In the past 3 years, this is what we did:
Ensured YCOA has representation on committees/organizations relevant to Seniors issues and partnered with other senior organizations on events (International Day of Older Persons, etc.)
Behind the scenes work on policies, timelines & procedures to increase our organizational capacity (While this doesn’t sound particularly riveting, 3 years of work in this area does make for better ability to provide quality services for Yukon Seniors now and in the future!)
Secured more funding from YG H&SS to provide industry level wages for staff (retention!), to develop YCOA’s “Learning for Life” Program and for future rural communities outreach.
Developed and piloted the new YCOA “Learning for Life Program”, with much success!
Created a new, user friendly YCOA Website !!! (created by Linda Profeit, volunteer)
Updated YCOA publications to ensure they have current information for Seniors.
“Hired” a really enthusiastic and savvy volunteer Sourdough Chronicle Editor – Doug Sack.
Considerably increased the visibility and awareness of YCOA & its services to Seniors.
Increased our membership via “Learning for Life” and recent Chronicle Editions.
