TFA MISSION

GOAL 1.  EXPAND OUTSIDE SUPPORT OF THE TFM (Advocacy)

Goal 1 targets a few feasible actions that if accomplished could have an important effect upon accrediting TFA members at different levels of government.

GOAL 2.  EXPAND RECOGNITION OF TFM (External marketing)

This goal includes preparing new materials, establishing a learning center and an effort to stop the illegal use of the Teaching-Family name.

GOAL 3.  COMMUNICATE THE VALUE OF BEING A TFA MEMBER

The thrust of this goal is to make members aware of all the benefits and resources available to them through TFA.
 

GOAL 4.  COLLECT & DISSEMINATE APPROPRIATE OUTCOME DATA

The key to achieving this goal, at least initially, is to collect relatively little information from each agency and to continue to add to it in future months or years.

GOAL 5.  EXPAND NETWORKING CAPABILITIES

Similar to goal 3, this goal tries to increase the value of membership in TFA through networking, one of the value added services that members rate most highly.

GOAL 6.  EXPAND STAFF DEVELOPMENT

iIn cont In contrast to the staff development goal in the last plan, this goal broadens staff development to include other groups besides practitioners.
