The exercise continues and is open to anyone interested; I found this on the CDA's website yesterday .
" Help shape the future of diabetes in Canada and beyond
The Association has launched a strategic planning initiative with the objective of ensuring that we are a stakeholder-focused and donor-trusted charitable leader in support of the more than 9 million Canadians who are living with diabetes or prediabetes. The plan will enable us to have a more consistent external view and ensure that we are able to meet the needs of key stakeholders, with a primary focus on people living with diabetes or prediabetes.
The prevalence and cost of diabetes in Canada is staggering and it is on the rise! Through the collective engagement of key stakeholders, the Association will advance to a destination of even greater efficiency, effectiveness and relevance to the people we serve – most importantly – people living with diabetes or prediabetes and the donors who support our efforts.
We want to hear from you. Please share your confidential thoughts and ideas to the question below with us, by Thursday, June 30, 2011. Your active contribution will help shape the future direction of the Canadian Diabetes Association
