Boston University School Of Public Health

A graduate class at the Boston University School of Public Health is conducting a community needs assessment in collaboration with MPSD to gather information on the health priorities of students in the district. The information we gather in this survey will help the school community to better understand the needs and concerns around student health and set priorities for health improvement. It is important to have the perspective of community members, (including parents, caregivers, teachers and other school staff) in understanding what health issues the community views are priorities. The survey should take about 5-10 minutes to complete - and the data collected will be strictly confidential. The BU students will collect this data and then present a preliminary report on their findings in May. We value your input in this data collection survey.
