2013 Air Force Community Assessment Survey
The Air Force Community Assessment Survey for 2013 is now underway. The theme for this year’s survey is “A Strong Community Depends On You”. Results from the Community Assessment Survey will impact installation community actions and suggest ideas for improvements of programs and services that support military families. E-mail notifications will be sent to Active Duty, Reservists, Guardsmen, and Civilian employees. Spouses will be sent an invitation postcard. Both the e-mails and postcards will include a link to the online survey. All responses will be kept completely anonymous and confidential. Past surveys have resulted in new and/or improved programs to support the entire Air Force community. The success of the survey relies on the participation of community members. See attached flyer for more information.
Airmen can pick up a free box of Girl Scout cookies at Airmen and Family Readiness during the April UTA between 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
