We've Extended the Deadline for Our Centennial Community Survey!

A huge thank you to everyone who has already completed our Centennial Community Survey and to those who reached out about issues accessing the form. We're so lucky to have such an incredible community behind us!

For some users, the survey link appeared to jump directly to the end of the survey. While we're not entirely sure why, we've created a new link and extended the deadline to make sure everyone has the opportunity to participate.

If you've already completed the survey, thank you! No further action is needed. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

If you haven't had a chance to participate yet, we'd love to hear from you. As we prepare to celebrate 100 years of YWCA Niagara Region, your ideas, experiences, and hopes for the future will help shape our next chapter. We've partnered with Ernest For Good to help gather community feedback, and we're so excited to hear your thoughts!
