Listening Sessions: Your City, Your Voice

Zoom Banner_logo-1

Share your thoughts, questions, and experiences regarding autism in Philadelphia. Tell us what is working well, what needs improvement, and what we should focus on in the coming years.

 

Background:

In 2014, stakeholders contributed to a Final Report (click to learn more) of over 100 initiatives. These initiatives guided what we worked on in the coming years. It is close to 10 years since that Final Report. There have also been many changes since the pandemic. We need your voice to guide what we work on in the coming years.

There are several ways to have your voice heard. Please see below for more details.

  • Listening Sessions
  • Survey Feedback
  • Voice Message

Virtual Listening Sessions

Virtual Zoom sessions are available in February and March. Initial sessions focused on a specific community or subject. The remaining sessions have been rescheduled into broader discussions open to any community or subject area. Please note: Sessions will be recorded so that we can refer to the feedback shared. Topics and themes will be gathered across all sessions, into a brief report. The brief report will be shared publicly. No identifying information will be included in the report.
