Member Survey
Thanks so much for taking the time to complete this survey!
This is an opportunity for you to let us know what is working, what isn't, and how you think the DSASC could serve you and your family better, so please, answer in as much detail as you are able.
This survey is anonymous, and questions without a

Completed surveys will be aggregated and the information will be shared with the DSASC executive committee to help make decisions to help best meet the needs of our members. Some aggregated information (not long-form written answers) may also be shared with the membership at an AGM or in a newsletter.
To thank you for your participation, we are also offering a draw for a $25 Tim Horton's gift card. Once your survey is complete, you can submit your name in to the draw on the confirmation page, and it will not be linked to your survey.
