Based on a review of the organization's website (Youth Villages in Memphis, TN) annual report, and/or newsletter, submit a three to four page discussion on the mission statement of this organization addressing the question "Does mission matter?" In answering this question, you should address the following topics:

1.What gap or need does this organization address in society? Is this clearly stated in the mission statement?

2. Is the organization meeting a relevant and necessary need?

3. Is the mission statement specific enough in giving guidance for the actual objectives and activities of the organization?

4. How do the primary programming activities of the organization fit the mission? Does any of them "stretch" the mission?

5. How would you improve the mission statement, and why?

6. What role does the board have in upholding the mission statement?
