Details of Volunteer Activity:
The Community Impact Measurement (CIM) Survey is widely used around the country to measure two important parts of every neighborhood, how residents express their experience of living there and the actual physical conditions of the area. The CIM survey has been administered in the same Lake Worth neighborhood three times, first in 2011, in 2013, and most recently in 2016. Lake Worth has had the benefit of many grants and community programs. The CIM allows us to know if the impact of our efforts is visible and experienced by residents who live in the community.
Home base will be ‘greenway’ across from Highland Elementary School on “A” Street in Lake Worth. We will ask that you park on “A” street and not in the bus loop. Arrive 15 minutes before your volunteer block to receive a training refresher, your t-shirt, and to be paired up with your “Survey Buddy”.

Contact Info to Register/Sign Up: Please email Jaime-Lee Brown at jbrown@cp-cto.org or call 561.841.3500 x1057.
