We are now actively developing the next iteration of our strategic plan, which will guide our work over the coming years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mcePastedContent\" data-ogsc=\"\">To support this important work, we have commissioned the strategy consulting firm The Greater. We have previously worked with their team in supporting elements of our growth and development planning for the sport of boccia in Canada, and we are pleased to continue this collaboration as we expand the scope to support the broader strategic direction of the Canadian Cerebral Palsy Sports Association.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mcePastedContent\" data-ogsc=\"\">The success of this strategic plan will depend on the input and insight of our boccia community. Today, we are launching the first step in this process through a national consultation survey, which will serve as a foundational element in shaping the key priorities and direction of our future work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mcePastedContent\" data-ogsc=\"\"><strong>Why should you participate?<\/strong><br \/>\nThis phase is critical, not only for the organization, but for the athletes, coaches, partners, and communities we serve. Our Strategic Plan will guide how we focus our efforts and invest our resources to deepen our impact across Canada. We strongly encourage you to take part as you are able, your insight will play an essential role in shaping our future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mcePastedContent\" data-ogsc=\"\"><strong>Survey Access and Key Information<br \/>\n<\/strong>The Strategic Plan survey can be accessed through the links below:<br \/>\n<strong>Survey in English: <\/strong><a title=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fccpsa.us8.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D4c3848f04ae6739a1378f439d%26id%3D69a2d989e9%26e%3Ddd82b36695&amp;data=05%7C02%7CZMeil%40ccpsa.ca%7C8572f490a784490f495908de9cbba7d5%7Cb24704b881c9422bb06d4d0ab5bfa5ae%7C0%7C0%7C639120526968717554%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=waJg%2FBw97c%2FWTuiCrzxp0Ye9oAEEt5t%2BbDIo%2FR1uVro%3D&amp;reserved=0\" href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fccpsa.us8.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D4c3848f04ae6739a1378f439d%26id%3D69a2d989e9%26e%3Ddd82b36695&amp;data=05%7C02%7CZMeil%40ccpsa.ca%7C8572f490a784490f495908de9cbba7d5%7Cb24704b881c9422bb06d4d0ab5bfa5ae%7C0%7C0%7C639120526968717554%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=waJg%2FBw97c%2FWTuiCrzxp0Ye9oAEEt5t%2BbDIo%2FR1uVro%3D&amp;reserved=0\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-outlook-id=\"1c8eedc2-5eed-45af-a44f-414024485931\">https:\/\/corexms92955nt52hth9.qualtrics.com\/jfe\/form\/SV_dmScCuceZX38Kp0<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Sondage en fran\u00e7ais: <\/strong><a title=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fccpsa.us8.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D4c3848f04ae6739a1378f439d%26id%3Dd6b1be9535%26e%3Ddd82b36695&amp;data=05%7C02%7CZMeil%40ccpsa.ca%7C8572f490a784490f495908de9cbba7d5%7Cb24704b881c9422bb06d4d0ab5bfa5ae%7C0%7C0%7C639120526968739104%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=XXA1KKqWxPRDmS8rbO4V4BQydhBlY0FIWV6V%2FJrjzK4%3D&amp;reserved=0\" href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fccpsa.us8.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D4c3848f04ae6739a1378f439d%26id%3Dd6b1be9535%26e%3Ddd82b36695&amp;data=05%7C02%7CZMeil%40ccpsa.ca%7C8572f490a784490f495908de9cbba7d5%7Cb24704b881c9422bb06d4d0ab5bfa5ae%7C0%7C0%7C639120526968739104%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=XXA1KKqWxPRDmS8rbO4V4BQydhBlY0FIWV6V%2FJrjzK4%3D&amp;reserved=0\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-outlook-id=\"32621891-8241-4603-a16f-1c337d60bd08\">https:\/\/corexms92955nt52hth9.qualtrics.com\/jfe\/form\/SV_9HwJyxhyavxsCSq<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mcePastedContent\" data-ogsc=\"\">We ask that you complete the survey before the end of the day on <strong>Monday, May 11<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mcePastedContent\" data-ogsc=\"\">There is no time limit to complete the survey, and you may complete it at your own pace.
