Vision 2020: Welcome
“Life’s most urgent question is: What are you doing for others?” Martin Luther King, Jr.
Increasing awareness, offering education and taking action to address economic insecurity and promote solutions for Waushara County residents is the work of the Vision 2020 Committee.
We recognize that working hard is not enough to address the economic struggles facing so many of Waushara County’s households. Solutions range from addressing very basic needs, improving school readiness through early childhood education programs, supporting education for a skilled work force, and removing barriers that prevent hard working and able bodied individuals from obtaining a living wage job – a job that offers economic security. Long-term solutions may take decades. In the meantime, workgroups focus on priorities established by the community: food hardships, resource awareness, employment barriers and technical assistance to groceries and small business.
