Engagement in Phase 2 focused on refining the Phase 1 foundational elements such as the mission, vision, values, priorities and enablers, as well as identifying emerging goals and metrics. In addition to the engagement methods outlined in first phase, this phase involved discussions centered around data focused on specific regions in Maryland connected to the priorities and enablers outlined in the Strategic Plan. This report is a companion piece to the Strategic Plan guidebooks, and the documents should be read together for an in-depth understanding of the plan's content and how it originated.
