MOAIMH-EC Networks

How Our Networks Work Together

Networks meet regularly around shared priorities. Progress is shared with the Board and members to support transparency and accountability.

Together, our Networks are guided by five Roadmap priorities:

  • Awareness and Shared Language

  • Workforce Development and Professional Growth

  • Partnerships and Systems Collaboration

  • Leadership and Organizational Capacity

  • Equity and Access
