As we entered 2020, the Board agreed to a deliberate effort to plan for BHT beyond the Waiver. From May through September 2020, the Board engaged in a planning process focused on our future and financial sustainability. The process included reviewing our history, assessing our capabilities and initiatives, surveying the external environment, and gathering staff input. Board members discussed gaps in the region and identified opportunities to build on and expand current work. Finally, the Board identified areas for us to focus on going forward.
