Val Vista Ward

Parent Council Survey

As a ward council we have been discussing what we can do to support the families within the ward and specifically the parents.

We plan to hold a parent council on a regular basis. Our hope is that this council will provide a space where we can share openly and learn from each other totally free of judgement. The purpose of this survey is to gauge the interest in the parent council overall and to gauge the interest in the subjects we have developed. It should only take a few minutes to fill out. Will you please click on the link below and fill out the survey?

Thank you for all the good things you do!

Sincerely,

The Val Vista Ward Council

Many Thanks to ALL.

We want to thank everyone that contributed to families and organizations in need this year. We have a very generous ward with wonderful giving people. The "Just Serve" website always has opportunities available if you still want to serve in some way. Thank you again.

Looking to serve with your family or friends? Visit JustServe.org to find meaningful opportunities near you.

If you have questions or need help, feel free to contact Mindy. Serving others is a beautiful way to celebrate the season—your efforts will make a real difference.
