LNA Strategic Planning Survey

(Please take online)

LNA is currently working on a strategic plan to help create a vision for Lyndale and a guide for the Neighborhood’s program, events, and activities over the next three years. An important step in this process is in understanding what Lyndale community members think of LNA’s current work and potential future directions.

Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey. It should take around 10 to 15 minutes; we really appreciate your participation. You can take it online by following this link.
