Seems like there have been a lot of coronavirus-related surveys this year. This survey is different:<\/strong> we\u2019ve been asking for\u00a0and listening to<\/em>\u00a0your rural challenges since 2015<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Of course rural challenges are different this year with COVID-19. That doesn’t mean all your other challenges disappeared, but it might mean your priorities have changed. We\u2019d like your help to get an updated view of the challenges to your community and your business, and what\u2019s working well or not so much.<\/p>\n

The survey is open to rural people globally<\/strong>: USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or any other country. If you live or work in small towns, we’d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n

\"Start<\/a><\/p>\n

Why your answers matter<\/h2>\n

Every small town has its own set of assets, issues and opportunities. You get a chance to tell us your community challenges and your assets, as well as what projects and ideas you’re trying.<\/p>\n

Small Biz Survival and SaveYour.Town<\/a> use the results to create practical steps that help you shape a better future for your town.<\/strong> Other organizations like government agencies and regional utilities use the results to better serve rural people. Your responses also get shared in articles and media stories without ever identifying you personally.<\/p>\n

Tell others about the Survey<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The more people who answer the survey, the better.<\/p>\n

You can share this survey to your friends, followers, subscribers, readers, or organizations you belong to. You can put it in your newsletter, on social media, on your website or anywhere else you think rural people will be likely to find it. You can share this link:<\/p>\n

The survey will close to new responses on December 31, 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n
