Last Call: Annual Advocate Survey by Friday, March 15 |
Thank you to the 38 Advocates who have already completed the Advocate Survey! I wanted to send out one last reminder for those who haven't yet been able to submit it. I would deeply appreciate you taking 5-10 minutes to share any feedback you have with me for your experience as an Advocate over the last year. This year, we are excited to have aligned our Advocate survey more to the survey the staff team completes as well! Results will be shared out in an upcoming Advocate call. The link will close at 5pm on Friday, March 15th. Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us! |
