HDI is Seeking Your Input for Our Five Year Plan

The University of Kentucky Human Development Institute wants your feedback to improve our work. Every five years we write a new plan that guides what we do in our role as a University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities.

We’ve put together a survey for you to tell us what we need to work on for the next five years about life in Kentucky for people with disabilities. How could it be better? What needs to change about education and employment, healthcare, housing, and transportation, advocacy, policy, and community support?

We need to hear from you. Please complete our 15 minute survey at: https://uky.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8tXsCRIEoRfNYeq

We’ll use your feedback in several important ways:

  1. Your feedback will be kept private. We will not share feedback or other information that could identify you.
  2. We will use all feedback received before February 2023 as we write our new plan.
  3. We will share a summary of what we learned on our website later this Spring.

At the end of the survey you can enter a raffle for one of multiple $20 gift cards.

If you would like support to complete this survey, email me at: kjone@uky.edu or cal 859-257-8104.
