Conducted a 74-county environmental scan to inform strategic planning and program alignment.

As part of our 74-county environmental scan for Methodist Healthcare Ministries (MHM), we conducted and analyzed 30 internal staff interviews and four group interviews to inform the organization's strategic planning and program alignment. In July, PI joined MHM's CEO Council to facilitate a SWOT workshop, gathering input from their leadership on what they see as organizational strengths, weaknesses, threats, and opportunities. We also presented our analysis and early recommendations from the external scan and internal assessment, working collectively to strategize in response to the impact of the federal policy climate on MHM's work and the wellbeing of residents in South Texas. In the final phase of our work, we analyzed and compiled key external factors and trends that influence health and wellbeing in their service area. This analysis included opportunities for internal program alignment to more effectively reach clients and promote systems-level transformation to digital equity, economic mobility, food security, and overall access to health.
