I, too, care about elders within our communities, and I also want to get as many replies to the survey as possible; however, for us to hire someone specifically to go door-to-door in communities to solicit the survey answers would be a financially huge cost and, in all honesty, I'd rather put that money that I have with housing towards homes for people versus collecting the data. So I will put a more concentrated effort into the radio campaign. I will let people know that it doesn't only have to be the survey. They can send me an email, they can write a letter, whatever way they can get feedback in. I will ensure that our local housing organizations, our government service officers remind them to get out there to specifically try to get as many seniors as possible. I would also like to ask, like the wonderful lady who said our prayer, to work together with our MLAs. I have been posting it on my Facebook and I am hoping that the MLAs will also help promote the survey through their Facebook or other means that they have possible to get as much opinions as we can.
