Evaluation Surveys

These surveys were created to help evaluate the impact of the Digital Health Literacy Workshops in your community. The statistics from these surveys will help us understand the reach of these workshops in our community. Your participants can also enter to win a prize for their time to complete these surveys!

Please ask your community members to fill out the pre-workshop survey before they participate in your workshop, and the post-workshop survey after the final workshop session. After you have finished leading your workshop, please make sure that you fill out the "Workshop Statistics Survey".
