“We’ve heard a lot anecdotally about how the pandemic is impacting our community and the survey is an attempt to gather a bit more detailed information,” says Anne Burrill, Executive Director of the Social Planning Council.

The survey is available online and is completely anonymous, and doesn’t not collect any identifying information.
