Demographics:
We collected demographic information on our survey so we can better understand who we are hearing from and who we need to do a better job of reaching out to. We also use demographic information to make sure that if voices that have been historically marginalized are telling us something unique, we hear it. 4,175 community members shared their thoughts with us by taking the survey.
Here are some snapshots of the respondents who shared their demographic information with us:
