| ODFW Strategic Vision |
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife conducts planning and prioritization exercises at the start of every biennium. We have operated under a comprehensive Strategic Plan since 2018. We have also developed an IT Strategic Plan and an IT Strategic Plan Progress Report.
TheStrategic Plan established long-term goals that support pursuit of ODFW’s mission to protect and enhance Oregon’s fish and wildlife and their habitats for use and enjoyment by present and future generations.
The full operational Strategic Plan was in effect 2018-2024. For 2025-2026, ODFW is maintaining the four primary goals as an Interim Strategic Plan. A full update and new Strategic Plan will be developed in 2026.
This Interim Strategic Plan has added a layer of Strategy and honed in on four priorities that advance our long-term goals:
2025-2026 STRATEGY: ODFW will lean in to solutions to the combined threats of climate change and the biodiversity crisis to drive urgency, preparedness, and public engagement with fish and wildlife.
Goal 1: Demonstrate effective stewardship of Oregon’s fish, wildlife, and their habitats
Interim Strategy: Focus financial resources, staff time, and partner capacity on building landscape resiliency and adaptation.
Goal 2: Increase and diversify public participation in the use and enjoyment of Oregon’s fish and wildlife resources
Interim Strategy: Care for existing relationships & intentionally build new relationships with people who may not have engaged with ODFW in the past.
Goal 3: Diversify, expand and align funding with the work we do and the people we serve.
Interim Strategy: Pursue diverse sources of revenue via the 2023 legislative session.
Goal 4: Improve our operational efficiency and ability to monitor and communicate performance.
Interim Strategy: Maintain ODFW’s culture of safety, inclusion and transparency
In late 2015, we began with the development of a vision, an overarching strategy, and four goals. The next step was development of specific, measureable, achievable, relevant, and time specific objectives.
For the start of the 2017-2019 biennium, we compiled teams to develop strategies and tactics to meet our goals and objectives. The teams developing strategies and tactics were comprised of members representing regional fish, regional wildlife, wildlife division, fish division, and our administrative programs. The goals, objectives, strategies, and tactics developed by these teams are reflected in the Strategic Plan released in February of 2018. The plan sunset at the end of 2024.
