2013 Strategic Planning Stakeholder Survey

Introduction

[Introduction] First 5 California (California Children and Families Commission) has embarked on a strategic planning process to guide its work over the next few years. This survey is one part of that process and aims to gather input from you, our stakeholder, on how we are doing, what we could do better, and where we should be headed. It should take about 15 minutes to complete and your responses are confidential (all identifying information will be removed from any responses included in our analyses and reports). We welcome your honest responses.

Thank you for helping us make our strategic plan stronger and more effective in collective service to California’s children ages 0 to 5 and their families. Please share this link with others in your network. We want to collect as many responses as possible before the survey closes on Wednesday, July 3, at 10 am.
