KCPHD 2020-2024 Strategic Plan
Amy Fuller discussed the Strategic Plan 2020 for the Kittitas County Public Health Department. Ms.
Fuller presented information on the history of the Strategic Plan that was started back in 2008 and the
different stages it has gone through. Ms. Fuller discussed the lengthy process that it takes to develop a
Strategic Plan and reviewed where the Kittitas County Management Team is currently in the process.
Ms. Fuller gave the commissioners the 2015-2019 Strategic Initiative Overview and the SWOT (Strength,
