“We believe the combination of virtual and in-person townhalls will provide us the platforms needed to hear from as many St. Louis County residents as possible,” said Veta Jeffery, Chief Diversity Officer. “We are intentionally working to make certain that we include opportunities for those whose lives have been disproportionally impacted during this pandemic.”
The online portion of the survey launched last Friday on the County website. Since its launch, more than 550 surveys have been submitted. The online survey will close on March 25.
