The Northern Berkshire Youth & Family Collaborative, a group of 20+ family and youth serving providers in north Berkshire, have designed a short survey to understand parent/caregiver & youth engagement in the community and where parents/caregivers get their information on clubs, events, activities, groups, etc... in the community. This survey will take less than 5 mins to complete, it will help all our local organizations be more mindful of family engagement in our community and understand where we need to prioritize our efforts. Additionally, upon completion, each parent will be given a link to enter a raffle for 1 of 3, $500 Visa Gift Cards. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/J8PLZ77
