p. 1. B. Describe the factors that impeded the achievement of the goals and priorities

Current Narrative:

The largest factors that impedes the achievement of the VR goals and priorities are staff turnover among DSB’s field staff.  We have consistently had an average of 8 vacancies among the counselors and support staff during the last year.  As a result of an internal audit of our provision of Pre-ETS services, we discovered the need to develop and implement new policies and procedures.   We were fortunate to work with WINTAC during this process.  As a result, the staff received additional training and new process was implemented in January 2020.
