Become a Citizen Grader!

From the Vancouver Foundation...

I’m pleased to invite you to register as a citizen grader for Vancouver Foundation’s second annual Vital Signs report.

Our online citizen grading survey in June will probe your perceptions of 12 key areas that have an impact on the livability and wellness of Greater Vancouver. You’ll also be asked to identify the top priorities requiring attention over the next year (prior to the municipal elections in the fall of 2008). Citizen grader results will be highlighted in the Vital Signs 2007 report, scheduled for release on Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007.

To register as a citizen grader, please:

Go to*: http://www.ipsos.ca/vitalsigns2007/survey.cfm

Simply provide your name and email address and press SUBMIT. It takes approximately one minute to register as a citizen grader.

* If the link above does not activate when you click on it, simply copy and paste into your web browser.

Next step:

In June, you’ll receive an email from Ipsos Reid, the firm undertaking this citizen grading process for Vancouver Foundation. You’ll be given your own personal web link which will take you to the grading survey. This survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

This year, our goal is to increase the number of citizen graders within the Greater Vancouver area and ensure strong diversity in gender, age, ethnicity, socio-economic background and live-work location within the region. We encourage you to forward this citizen grading invitation to other expert informants who can enable us to achieve this goal. Please feel free to forward this on to coworkers, colleagues, fellow volunteers, etc. between now and the end of May

Thank you for your interest in and support for Vital Signs!
