Chippewa Luce Mackinac Community Action Agency (CLMCAA) is committed to serving the needs of our community and ensuring that our programs and services are aligned with the evolving priorities of the Eastern Upper Peninsula. As part of our ongoing strategic planning efforts, we are conducting a Community Needs Assessment to gather valuable feedback from residents across Chippewa, Luce, and Mackinac counties.
We invite community members to participate in this important survey, which will help us understand the most pressing challenges faced by individuals and families in our region. To thank participants for their time, respondents will have the chance to win a $50 gift card—one winner will be selected in each of the three counties we serve.
The survey will be available February 3-March 31st and will take approximately 5 minutes to complete. All responses are anonymous, and the information collected will be used solely for planning purposes.
“We believe that the best way to meet the needs of our community is to listen to the people who live here. This survey is an opportunity for every voice to be heard, and we encourage everyone to take a few moments to share their thoughts. Your input will help shape the future of our programs and services.”
Joe Nolan, Executive Director of CLMCAA
The survey will remain open until March 31st, so don’t miss the chance to share your feedback and help us build a stronger, more connected community.
Polls are open Friday November 29th through Thursday, December 12th at midnight.
The winning tree and tree awards will be presented by Santa during the Awards Celebration on Saturday, December 14th, 2024.
The event not only showcases the creativity of local businesses and organizations but also raises critical funds for those in need of heating assistance during the coldest months.
