Question

How do vision and mission statements work together??

Answer 1

 Vision statements are short phrases or sentences that convey your community's hopes for the future. A Mission statement describes what the group is going to do and why it's going to do that. For example, "Promoting care and caring at the end of life through coalitions and advocacy."

Mission statements are similar to vision statements, in that they, too, look at the big picture. However, Mission statements are more concrete, and they are definitely more "action-oriented" than vision statements. Your vision statement should inspire people to dream; your mission statement should inspire them to action.
