Language and Engagement Survey

Survey Instructions

Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey on language preferences and community engagement.

In keeping with the "Connecting Communities" initiative, the Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) is committed to ensuring that people of all races, ethnicities, and social circumstances are able to contribute to the community and transportation planning process, so together we can create a transportation system that is safe, reliable, and equitable for all.

Your responses to this survey will help us serve you better. Participation in this survey is voluntary and your answers are anonymous.

The Language section is about getting to know your language preferences, while the Engagement Section asks how H-GAC can encourage you to participate in its public involvement activities.
