It is recognized that not every question is relevant to this Board.
The three areas that the software lists as areas with needed improvement are:
Board Goals & Accountability
Development (Fundraising)
Board Recruitment
Discussion regarding Development goals - this area will likely be satisfied with the grant-writing work of Marcy Stryker.
M. Snyder will reach out to Marcy Stryker to ask if she has experience helping Boards develop strategic plans.
