Would you like to see better services available for the LGBTQ+ community in the Kansas City area? You can help by responding to a survey that asks about your needs and experiences accessing services. The survey is part of a needs assessment project titled Voices of Pride, and will result in current, actionable data that can inform changes in the local community.

For more details and to complete the survey, check out the link below! The survey links will be open for you to share your input until midnight on Saturday, August 31st.
