<h1><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:24pt">Your Feedback Is Important: Climate Assessment Survey Now Open</span></span></h1>
<p><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14pt">As mentioned in the <a href="https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=20927&qid=5215753" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">April 15 open letter from President Riccobono</a>, RAINN, the nation's largest anti-sexual violence organization, is partnering with the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) to gather feedback from the blind community, including NFB members and nonmembers, in a climate assessment survey to help inform recommendations for further sexual misconduct prevention and response programming. This effort will assist in determining additional and continuous training, which will ultimately provide consistency across the organization. This is a baseline
measurement to target our future efforts and will continue to be assessed as a component of our accountability measures.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:14pt">All responses go directly to RAINN and are completely anonymous. RAINN will deliver a report detailing findings and implications that will be shared at the time of our 2021 national convention. </span></span></p>
<h2><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:22pt">Take Survey via Web or Phone</span></span></h2>
<p style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:14pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Participate in the assessment survey either via the web or by phone.

<p style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:14pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The survey may also be completed over the phone by calling 229-632-7878 or toll-free 833-632-7878.
