[edit] O.A.L.E.P. STRATEGIC PLAN 2007-2008

Background

The need to develop a Business Plan for the Ontario Association of Law Enforcement Planners (OALEP) was identified by the membership in attendance at the spring 2006 OALEP Conference. A discussion held at the Conference resulted in a consensus of the membership that the organization should determine the future direction with clearly defined goals and strategies.

On February 6th, 2007, the OALEP Executive Committee met to develop a proposed Mission Statement and Strategic Business Plan which was adopted by the membership at the spring 2007 OALEP meeting.
