Take the Opioid Community Needs Assessment

survey by Sept. 22

 

All community members are encouraged to take the Opioid Community Needs Assessment to deepen our understanding of the opioid crisis and empower us to make the best use of National Opioid Settlement funding to save lives, prevent opioid use, and remedy the impacts opioids have on our community.

 

The confidential 10-minute survey aims to bring together our community members' expertise and lived experiences to identify local strategies, inform new funding opportunities, and strengthen the community's understanding from a variety of perspectives.

 

If you need an auxiliary aid/service or other accommodation due to a disability to participate in this survey or would like to request the survey in a language other than English or Spanish, contact Kalamazoo County Government’s ADA Coordinator at ADA@kalcounty.com or 269-384-8111 as soon as possible. We will try to make every reasonable effort as required by law to accommodate the auxiliary aid/service accommodation or language request, but we cannot guarantee that the request will be fulfilled if not timely submitted.
