Mission and Vision Statement Development

We are searching for a volunteer who can lead our development of a new and improved mission and vision statement that will communicate our purpose and vision to a variety of stakeholders. Our ideal volunteer partner will be a creative communicator who is ready to dive into messaging strategy with our team!

We will work together to complete the project through four meetings in five weeks. The first meeting will be an opportunity for our CEO to introduce the project, goals and scope. The second meeting will be an introduction to the Board of Directors and other key stakeholders and hear more of their experience, hopes, and vision. We will provide the volunteer with our existing mission or value statement and orient the volunteer to discuss our current vision and the way we deliver on it through our programs. In our third meeting, the volunteer should present a first draft. We will provide feedback. We may work asynchronously for continued feedback, and in our final meeting together, the volunteer will deliver the final, copy-edited version.

Heart-to-Heart is returning to its roots in focusing on the needs of people who are incarcerated and returning to society. And, the landscape has changed since our beginnings in a county jail in Albuquerque. A seasoned professional with experience in helping organizations create clear, compelling mission and vision statements could be a difference-maker in this pivotal moment in our history.

We will provide the volunteer with our existing mission, vision, or value statement plus other relevant background materials. Our organization has clearly defined stakeholders and will provide that information to our volunteer partner. We have a designated member of our team available to work with the volunteer on this project.
