HOW WE’RE
STRUCTURED
Polk Vision is governed by
a Board of Directors which
oversees the Operating Board
in its leadership of Teams
working collaboratively on a
range of complex issues in six
foundational areas of focus.
PRINCIPLES
These principles ensure our work
is targeting systemic change or
new ways of aligning resources
to address underlying causes.
Systemic change occurs when an
outcome or goal has been attained.
This achievement is either through
the elimination of the problem
or through permanently aligning
programs, policies, funding streams
or services to reduce the impact of
the problem on a long term basis.
Polk Vision strives to:
•
•

and a high level of accountability.
Unify initiatives across the
county through a comprehensive,

process that is recognized as
generational; requiring significant
time to achieve change and
