Listening Tour
Growing Communities of Inclusion: A Faithful Response to HIV/AIDS is an initiative of the North Carolina Council of Churches, working to provide faith leaders and communities of faith with accurate information, accessible resources, and to dispel myths about HIV/AIDS and those living with it.  This survey will be used to record concerns, stories, and to set a baseline of knowledge about HIV in NC and programs available in the state.

Your participation is invaluable to our work and we are appreciative of your time in sharing a thoughtful response. Individual responses will be private and a summary report will be shared with all participants.

This survey will take approximately 10 min
