The vision statement serves to convey
the goals and values of the association. The vision outlines
what is possible and what the association aspires to.
A vision should answer questions such as: What are the
association's core values, what is CASLPA's reason for
being, how can it make a difference, and what activities
are worth undertaking? An organization's vision must transcend
the current leadership.
The mission deals with the behaviour
of the organization and the present situation and provides
direction for an organization and is the basis for all
planning. It is the starting point for all and needs to
be realistic. The mission usually defines the purpose
of the organization, recognizes the stakeholders, indicates
their needs, and implies the image that the organization
wants to project.
