Please consider compleing this survey for our colleagues at Trinity Services, Inc. !

Trinity Services Launches Community Behavioral Health Needs Assessment - Responses Welcomed!

We are excited to launch Trinity Services’ Community Behavioral Health Needs Assessment and are asking for your input.

Who Should Complete the Survey?

We are interested in those who have firsthand knowledge of the behavioral health needs, barriers, service gaps, and available resources in the communities that Trinity serves. We are also looking for insights based on your own personal experiences, that of family or friends, or your involvement in the community.

Please complete the survey based on any combination of your professional experience, personal experience, and knowledge of your community. This might include accessing or trying to access behavioral health services, making referrals, helping someone locate services, encountering wait lists or other barriers, or identifying services and resources that have been particularly helpful.

You do not need to have expertise in every area or be familiar with every available resource. We are interested in your perspective based on what you have observed or experienced, and you should only share personal information that you are comfortable providing.

We also encourage you to share the survey with community providers, organizations, and other individuals who may have valuable insight into behavioral health needs and resources in the area.

How to Complete the Survey

Please take a few minutes to complete the Trinity Services’ Community Behavioral Health Needs Assessment using the link below:

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and perspective. Your feedback will help us better understand community needs, identify gaps and barriers, and determine opportunities to strengthen behavioral health services across the communities Trinity serves.

🕯️ Imagine a beautiful fall sunset over Turtle Lake, the sounds of 3rd City Brass Band leading us around the water, families, friends, veterans, kiddos, and even four legged besties walking together.
🕯️ Then, as the sun sets, we’ll gather by candlelight, be inspired, remember people we love, and enjoy some Moe Joe's gumbo, Mac, & hot chocolate.
🕯️ You don’t need to be a veteran. You don’t need to have lost someone. You don’t even need to know anyone there.
You just need to show up with heart. We’ll take care of the rest. ❤️
