What is Community Impact?

Community Impact is a philosophy premised upon improving lives by mobilizing communities to create lasting, long term changes.  This is done by achieving measurable results through strategies that focus on community systems and resources.

United Way has put a bold stake in the ground by committing to working on improving outcomes for our community related to EDUCATION, INCOME and HEALTH while maintaining its commitment to BASIC NEEDS. The community has chosen these focus areas because of our ability to collectively make a difference. 

As part of United Way's commitment to create measurable results the organization is undergoing a three-year long transformation process.  This process involves better understanding the needs of the community and identifying how to address them with specific, focused goals.  Click here for a list of FAQs surrounding the transfomation process.
