Action Plan Download
Alexandria developed its action plan around three mission-driven categories. The plan focuses on promoting physical wellbeing throughout a lifetime, with optimal access to healthcare in its various forms and affordability; working with community partners to provide products and services that foster safe and livable homes and communities, and that help people of all ages achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves; and to expand transportation services and options, as well as to increase the overall transit demand, capacity, accessibility, affordability, reliability and efficiency.
