Six Key Strategies
Overview
If our three-part purpose statement represents our “why,” our six key strategies represent our “how.” We believe if we work effectively and make disciplined decisions to structure our work around these six strategies, we will see progress on the health of Kansans.
As we consider any applications or requests for funding or partnering, we go back to these strategies. Does the request fall into one of these categories? We also consider these as we proactively or strategically make decisions. It’s common inside our office that if someone has an idea, they need to immediately follow it up by saying how it connects to one of these six strategies.
Six Key Strategies
If our three-part purpose statement represents our “why,” our six key strategies represent our “how.”
Strategy #1: Build and support institutions that anchor the vision to lead the nation in health.
Strategy #2: Build the power and influence of partners working closest to the communities experiencing the greatest health disparities.
Strategy #3: Mobilize Kansans in authority roles to dismantle inequities that lead to health disparities.
Strategy #4: Cultivate and refine the KHF network to be an ecosystem working to lead the nation in health.
Strategy #5: Inspire and align additional resources to focus on leading the nation in health.
Strategy #6: Foster an internal culture that aligns every KHF resource to maximize impact.
