Vision, Mission, and Core Values
The mission, vision, and values of SHP and the priorities outlined in the strategic plan align with those of Rutgers Health and the three value propositions that are the touchstones of Rutgers University; the relentless pursuit of academic excellence; the need to develop strategic institutional clarity; and the achievement of a beloved community.
As we launch this strategic plan, we do so with a clear understanding of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Our plan is designed to be a living, evolving process— one that will continue to adapt through the same iterative and collaborative approach that shaped its creation. Together, we will ensure the plan remains dynamic, relevant, and impactful in addressing the changing needs of our students and positions us for long-term success.
