Momentum 2022Four participants participating in Momentum 2022 share their perceptions about progress made so far and preview areas that will be addressed in the next five-year plan.
Momentum 2022 began in 2016 with input from a wide range of individuals committed to course-correcting issues identified through a comprehensive county assessment undertaken by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The survey highlighted concerns about everything from economic development and education to poverty and community pride. The report’s findings galvanized local leaders, who built an extensive framework for shoring up the community’s weaknesses and capitalizing on its considerable strengths. Four participants in the process share their perceptions about progress made so far and preview areas that will be addressed in the next five-year plan.
