  • 2011 Transforming Lives & Eliminating Health Disparities
    West Virginia University Robert C. Byrd Health Sciences Center Development Report 2011 Transforming Lives & Eliminating Health Disparities Faculty, students, and staff at the Health Sciences Center – including all of our schools and campuses, and all our WVU Healthcare affiliates – have been reviewing our priorities and planning the future of our institution throughout the past year. The strategic planning process initiated by WVU President Jim Clements has involved hundreds of people at the HSC, and has resulted in a renewal of our dedication to our core missions. Transforming Lives and Eliminating Health Disparities We have identified five priorities for the HSC over the next five years: • Contribute to the health of West Virginians through leading edge research programs • Promote a vibrant environment devoted to diversity, learning & scholarship • Raise the health status of West Virginians • Foster a culture of high purpose, accountability & accomplishment • Deliver high quality, effective patient-centered care Each of our schools has set specific measurable goals under these priorities and will publicly report on their progress as we move forward. To see more detail on the HSC Strategic Plan and follow our progress, visit www.hsc.wvu.edu/hsc2020. Our success in the pursuit of these goals has been immeasurably strengthened in the past year by the impressive generosity of our donors. Not only have several individuals, families, corporations and foundations stepped up to create transformational, million-dollar-plus endowments, but an enormous number of alumni, parents, friends and former patients have reached into their pockets to support our students, our research programs and our healthcare efforts. The total raised to support our schools and programs in FY 2011 was $21.2 million.
