Hello:
You are invited to participate in our Community Health Needs Survey. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

It is very important for us to learn your honest opinions about the health of your community. Your participation in this survey is completely voluntary. Therefore, if you feel uncomfortable answering any of the questions, you can decline to answer. You can also withdraw from the survey at any point.

The information you provide will be kept anonymous. All responses will be strictly confidential and data from this process will be reported only in the aggregate. Nothing will be attributed to one person directly. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Lorez Meinhold by email at [email protected].
