Voices of Women in America survey available through Nov. 30
The Kauai County Committee on the Status on the Women (KCCSW) wants to hear
from women 18 years and older about the concerns and issues of Kauai women. The
committee has partnered with the National Association of Commissions for Women in launching
the Voices of Women in America survey.
Visit to the County's Committee on the Status of Women website at
https://www.kauai.gov/KCCSW and click on the "Voices of Women in American" link to take the
survey, which is available through Nov. 30. The survey takes about five to 10 minutes to fill out.
"We are reaching out to all our friends, family, and colleagues to take this survey," said
Committee on the Status of Women Chair Sharon Lasker. "It's important that our leaders hear
what's important to us, and we look forward to sharing the results of this groundbreaking report
with Mayor Derek S. K. Kawakami, our County Council, community leaders, and grantors to
inform their decisions on policies, programs, and funding."
The survey results will be compiled into a national report that is to be released in July
2020 and will be shared with the President, Congress, and the nation.
While individual responses will remain confidential, data will be sorted by zip code,
enabling the committee to compile specific data for Kauai which will be published and
shared.
To learn more about the Voices of Women in America survey, contact Boards and
Commissions Administrator Ellen Ching at 241-4922 or eching(a-)kauai.gov, or Commission
Support Clerk Sandra Muragin at 241-4919 or smuragin(aD_kauai.gov.
