The Goal-Setting Council established three additional expert panels to focus on health, education and financial stability. Using local data, input from the community conversations and surveys, and strategies that have worked in communities like ours, these volunteers will recommend goals to the Goal-Setting Council in 2022. In total, more than 70 community leaders will be directly involved in setting the goals.
