Greetings Shelly,

We are very excited to share our new strategic plan with you! We developed
this plan in collaboration with our board of directors and community
advisory board (CAB). These are two of our most important groups of
stakeholders, which provide ongoing and invaluable feedback into our work
and process. Please click here

*"The Well Project and its members understand there's no single solution to
decreasing the negative effects of HIV on women and our strategic plan is
designed to addresses the complex nature of women’s lives. Research,
supported leadership and meaningful partnerships are some of the keys to
women's health across the world, and our members are here to see success in
our lives and others,"* said Aryah Lester, CAB member

This plan will guide The Well Project over the next five years and was
created to ensure that we are pursuing all of our efforts with intention. *"The
strategic plan is a foundational tool to inform the expansion of our
programming over the coming five years, because it represents guidance from
many of our most important stakeholders," *says Judy Auerbach, PhD, board
of directors co-chair.

Our new plan formalized the goals, objectives, strategies, and tactics that
will guide our programming between now and 2023 and focuses on five primary
areas:

   - Education and Information
   - Community Support
   - Advocacy and Leadership
   - Collaborative Engagement
   - Women-focused Research

We are excited to share this plan

with you and look forward to continuing to address the needs and improve
the lives of women living with and vulnerable to HIV.
