Clark County Community Services will host four public forums in January regarding the low-income community needs survey conducted earlier this year. Discussion and feedback from attendees will be included in the final needs assessment report.
Feedback will help determine spending decisions countywide for community services and programs, a Clark County press release stated.
The confidential survey, issued earlier this year, asked low-income residents about their families’ needs. Community Services conducts a community needs assessment every three years.
Registration for community forums is encouraged. Interpretation services can be provided upon request, and light refreshments will be available during in-person forums.
