Good morning, Scott Hoover requested that I post this voting survey to our website and let people know about it. I am forwarding this on to you both. I feel this is an important component to our voting experience In a couple of weeks. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Larry,

 

Earlier this year, DisAbility Rights Idaho agreed to participate in this very important national voter experience survey

 

SABE has finally released the details of what they hope to get from the survey and how to refer people to participate.  Here are the details!

 

Can you help facilitate getting the voter survey circulated amongst the ICBVI community?  that would be GREAT!

 

We have attached it (or will be soon) to our own website as a link and encourage ICBVI to do the same if possible…

 

Thanks Larry…

 

Let me know if you have any questions/comments/feedback …

 

Best,

 

Scott

Dear VAAC Members:

 

Thank you all for agreeing to work with SABE to collect the 2016 Voter Experience Surveys.  I have attached a hard copy of the survey and an "article" and a "competition press release" you can personalize and place on your website, newsletter, etc. about the survey with internet links.  Survey collection begins on November 8, 2016. We now have 22 states working on this campaign!

 

You  have all agreed to collect a minimum of 100 surveys by January 1, 2017.   If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at (513) 623-2566 or essie.pederson at gmail.com .  Self advocacy organizations in your state continue to be one of your best resources to collect surveys.  The internet link to the survey is:  <https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2016VoterExperienceSurvey> https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2016VoterExperienceSurvey

 

A few months ago we sent out an email about a "collection competition" for the self advocacy groups.  For the collection competition, the state self advocacy team with the most completed surveys will be recognized by SABE, the national Self Advocacy organization. They will have an article written about their state team partnership with their P&A organization and other community partners in the SABE Nation newsletter. This would appear on the GoVoter page of the <http://www.sabeusa.org/>   <http://www.sabeusa.org/> www.sabeusa.org website and be recognized in our Voter Project.  

 

We are very excited about the information we will be able to collect on a national and statewide level.  Let's work together to keep the momentum going to collect this very important information.

 

Best regards,

 

Essie
