Amazing Arlington Community Needs Survey
COVID-19 has caused unprecedented changes in each of our lives. Some of us are experiencing significant financial hardship. Others feel isolated and alone. Some are feeling an overwhelming desire to help.
As a Town, we are working diligently to navigate this crisis. And we’ve been inspired by what we’ve seen from you: people hanging banners on their homes, signs in our storefronts, photographers documenting the “new normal”, activity in new and old Facebook groups and social organizations for volunteering, people supporting our local businesses through this time of stress and uncertainty, sidewalk chalk art, virtual concerts, and so much more.
Let us know what else you're doing, share what you've seen posted in other communities, or share your original ideas for building community in the first part of this survey.
We also want to understand what you need. The second part of this survey is our way of taking the pulse of the community. We may not be able to provide direct immediate assistance, but understanding our broader community needs will help us direct our energy and resources, and point people to organizations that can provide assistance.
We are working with volunteers from every precinct in Town to identify ways of keeping this amazing community spirit going. Thank you for taking this short survey and sharing your ideas, thoughts, and needs. Together, even as a virtual community, we can get through this.
