Work In Progress

Over many months, members of PLAY have participated in strategic planning sessions and on-line surveys to identify goals and strategies to shape our work over the next three years. This planning has evolved based on the local research of our region and the direction of our provincial government.

Goals and Strategies, 2009-2012

Strategy 1:
Create bridging strategy to enhance coordination of cross sector services at normative transitional points, ie: leaving hospital, entering school.

Strategy 2:
Develop a media campaign with key messages to support strong parent/child relationships which create culture of strength-based messages.

Committees of PLAY

To further the strategies identified, PLAY coordinates committees interested in implementing the strategies through specific action. Resources, and coordination are brought together to support our community members in their efforts.

If you are interested in any of these committees please contact the representatives below to find out more about meeting dates and the work they are doing.
