Support Needed: Take CANDLE’s 2024 Community Survey!

CANDLE is once again conducting a community survey that aims to analyze local usage trends of alcohol & cannabis (marijuana) among individuals with disabilities in Cortland County. The results of this survey will help inform our coalition’s ongoing substance use prevention work.

Are you 18 or older? Do you live in Cortland County? Please consider completing CANDLE’s 2024 Community Survey. You do not need to have a disability to take it, and if you took it last year, you can take it again!

We are also in need of community partners to help support our data collection efforts. If you can assist with survey distribution through your agency, group, or business, please email Ally McCabe, Project Director at candle@aticortland.org.

How long is the survey?

It is 22 questions long and takes about 5 minutes on average to complete.

Who can take it?

Anyone 18 or older who lives in Cortland County. You do not need to have a disability to take our survey. If you took our survey in 2023, please take it again!

Are my answers anonymous?

CANDLE’s 2024 Community Survey is being administered by The Rural Health Institute of New York. All responses are voluntary and will be confidential. Responses will not be identified by individual, rather, they will be compiled together and analyzed as a group. Following analysis, the collective results will be compiled into reports and made available for public viewing.

What if I need the survey in a different format?

Accessibility is one of CANDLE’s biggest priorities! Our survey is available in multiple formats – please reach out to Ally at candle@aticortland.org or call ATI at 607-753-7363 for assistance.
