Our Priorities for the Upcoming Year

Our Priorities for the Upcoming Year featured image

Last year, Vitalyst embarked on a Strategic Roadmap Refresh. We implemented our three goals of Collaborative Networks, Strong Community Partners and Informed Decision-Makers. Since these goals are broad, we focused them with priority areas: Civic Health; Housing; Food Systems; Healthcare Integration.

As we went through our budget process this year, we examined where we could be most impactful and what areas needed Vitalyst’s continued support. This led us to the conclusion that other partners, like Pinnacle Prevention, are better positioned to lead the work in food systems through the Arizona Food Systems Network. While we will continue to support their work, food systems will not be a stated priority for Vitalyst this upcoming fiscal year.

Vitalyst’s priorities for 2023 – 2024 will be: 1) Civic Health; 2) Health Care Integration; 3) Housing. Below is what those mean to us:

  • Civic Health – Supporting long-term efforts that improve active community participation.
  • Health Care Integration – Supporting health systems that integrate physical, mental and social determinants of health.
  • Housing – Support statewide housing initiatives along the spectrum of housing types.

As always, Vitalyst’s doors are open to opportunities that can improve community health and well-being, regardless of how these opportunities connect, even if they are outside of these stated priorities. Our Discovery Process will open back up in July. If you are interested in learning more, let’s have a conversation.
