San Antonio: This year, nearly 10,500 of you have helped to reaffirm and strengthen San Antonio’s Community Vision for the next decade. That’s a 75% increase over the original visioning process—in the middle of a pandemic.
Through your input and with the review of local content experts and nearly 50 local, regional, and national plans, SA2020 has strengthened San Antonio’s shared Community Vision. Now, we need your help with one more thing. Help us affirm or edit the proposed Community Results and Indicators.
You can do this in two ways throughout October: 1) Take 5-10 minutes to provide input online via a form. 2) Join a 1-hour virtual conversation to connect with fellow San Antonians and share your thoughts.
Your feedback will help us ensure San Antonio’s Community Vision truly reflects the community’s needs and priorities. Thank you for helping strengthen San Antonio’s future!
The form below asks for your input on the proposed Community Result that you’re most passionate or curious about. Then, it asks for your feedback on the draft indicators that will help tell us if we’re actually making progress. This should take 5-10 minutes to complete.
In partnership with students from UTSA, SA2020 will also host virtual community conversations on the draft Results and Indicators throughout October. Each conversation will focus on a different Result. Choose the cluster of words you’re most curious or passionate about (or choose several!) and register for the event.
