In November 2023, DFPC is officially starting the strategic planning process! We anticipate completion by the beginning of July 2024. We are fully committed to delivering a strategic plan that reflects the needs, ideas, and ambitions of DFPC staff and our external stakeholders. An important step in the strategic planning process is a series of in-person meetings around the state. During these meetings, we hope DFPC staff and external stakeholders will share their ideas for the DFPC’s future work.
