🌟 We Want to Hear From You, Penticton! 🌟

At ASK Wellness Society, maintaining a high standard of service for our program participants, employees, and the community at large is a top priority. Each year, our Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) Committee gathers valuable feedback from stakeholders to help us identify areas for growth and improvement in the communities we serve.

We invite you to take a few minutes to complete our community feedback survey. Your insights are incredibly important to us and can help shape the future of our programs. The survey takes just 5–10 minutes, and all responses will be collected by December 20th, 2024.

Together, we are better. Thank you for your input and support! 💙
