In an effort to gain a better understanding of community needs, the Human Development Commission (HDC), is conducting a community assessment survey for the counties of Huron, Lapeer, Sanilac, and Tuscola.  The purpose of the study is to identify what residents perceive to be the health and social needs that affect them personally or the community in which they live. 
Your opinion is important to us, which is why we are asking for your views and knowledge on a wide variety of issues including education, health care, public safety, childcare, housing, transportation, and other topics.  Your response is requested by July 31, 2008.  Data from the survey will be compiled and summarized in HDC’s 2008 Community Needs Assessment. HDC will utilize the study results to identify strategies and enhance the quality of available services in the region.  A final report of the survey findings is expected to be published and shared with other community-based organizations by November 1, 2008.  A summary of the report will also be available on our website at www.hdc-caro.org
