This fall, CCSS is undertaking a strategic planning process to identify our Society’s strengths, challenges and priorities for the upcoming years. As part of this process, we’re inviting community members to share their perspectives on what’s working, what’s missing along with ideas for the future.  

To help inform our planning process, please consider completing this short, anonymous survey to share your thoughts on CCSS Programs and our work in the community. The survey will remain open until Sunday, November 10th.
