UPDATE 6/24/2019:

EnVision OKC: Community Engagement Survey open now through end of July!

The purpose of the EnVision OKC campaign is to provide opportunities to reflect on our community with the purpose of elevating our consciousness to identify who we are; name our strengths; recognize our opportunities; and visualize our hopes for our shared future. The EnVision campaign has been specifically designed for our congregation with the goal of preparing us for change.

From Jan-April, during the peak of the EnVision campaign, approximately 200 members of our congregation opted to engage in facilitated discussions designed to draw out reflections on our community. These discussions were held on weekends, in the evenings, at ABRS, and at ECC.

The output of these conversations were documented, analyzed, and synthesized, resulting in the surfacing of various themes. This survey aims to (1) reflect these themes back to us, and (2) prompt us to react to these themes in a more specific, individualized way. The goal of this survey is to take the EnVision campaign one step further to understanding our hopes and preferences for our community.

Please take a moment to share your thoughts! (One respondent per survey; multiple survey responses per household is fine! Survey can be taken anonymously, or there's an option to share your name at the end if you chose).

Please note this survey may take between 15-30 minutes to complete, depending on how detailed you wish to be.
