Salem, Ore. - The City of Salem is excited to announce the launch of a new community outreach initiative, Northeast United, aimed at engaging members of Northeast Salem community to identify and address key neighborhood concerns. As part of this effort, a community questionnaire titled the Northeast United Collaboration Survey, will be available today.
The Northeast United Collaboration Survey is designed to gather input directly from community members about the issues they believe are most pressing in their neighborhoods. The survey will take approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete and will provide valuable insights to help guide community-focused, community-driven solutions.
"We want to hear from the people who know Northeast Salem best, its residents and community members," said Ashley Dunn, City of Salem's Community Engagement Manager. "This survey is an important step in ensuring that our outreach efforts are grounded in the real experiences and priorities of the community."
Residents, business owners, and community members are encouraged to participate and share their perspectives to help shape the future of Northeast Salem. The City of Salem is committed to fostering a collaborative approach that empowers community members to be active partners in creating positive change.
Rian Rasubala, Community Development & Programs at Valor Mentoring and Northeast Salem resident, said, "I am very excited to see what happens with this project. Northeast Salem is a special place, with unique needs and challenges. With the right folks at the table, we can make a positive difference in this neighborhood."
The survey will be accessible online starting July 7 and will close on August 2. For more information about Northeast United and to participate in the survey, please visit www.cityofsalem.net/community/northeast-united.
