The fund was to be used to respond to, assist and support the financial needs of components facing extreme financial hardship for various reasons, including those caused by weather or other natural disasters that overwhelm the components’ ability and capacity to meet member needs, force majeure incidents, or other extraordinary events that impact the viability and sustainability of components. President Frederick appointed a task force to assess components’ financial health, set criteria and guidelines, and develop recommendations for short- and long-term solutions to address the viability of components during this unprecedented time. The task force evaluated the financial health of components by examining data and association trends and best practices research and conducted outreach to the component network to gain insight into components’ capabilities to withstand economic instability during the crisis. To ensure the AIA’s health and sustainability at all levels, the task force identified circumstances for potential AIA support for components.’ Guided by the Task Force’s recommendations, the Board approved criteria as the basis for determining qualifications for component funding through the Component Resilience Fund in 2020. 2021-2025 STRATEGIC PLAN Access the AIA Strategic Plan 2021 — 2025 here: http://content.aia.org/sites/default/files/2020-07/2021-2025- Strategic-plan.pdf After 18 months of work, our new strategic plan has been approved by the Strategic Council.
