Community Needs Survey

Dear Community Member,

​

APIC SPS is inviting your participation in our 2026's community needs survey in preparation of our 2027's activities. The purpose of this survey is to gather valuable insights and feedback from our community regarding your community interests and needs and the need for an accessible and affordable community space dedicated to serving Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) groups in Washington's South Puget Sound area.

​

Your responses will help us to learn your immediate needs and to learn about our specific space needs, preferences, so we can meet our community growing needs in general. This information is crucial for planning and developing more workshops, events, and a community space that can effectively support cultural, educational, social, and wellness activities for our community as a whole, and to share with our governmental agencies for needed support.

​

Please take a few minutes to answer the following questions. Complete the survey prior to end of Nov. 15, 2026. Your input is vital in helping create a vibrant and inclusive community space that help us to meets the collective needs of our community.

​

Thank you for taking the time to participate in this survey. Thank you also for your continuous contribution and support for our community!

Any questions? Please contact us at apic.southpugetsound@gmail.com. Thank you.
