Dear Friend,
K-State Research and Extension offers the facilitation, information, education and
applied research needed to help Kansans address the important issues facing our
families, farms, ranches, businesses and communities.
You have been selected to complete a survey to help prioritize issues that are important
to you and your community. Knowing the priority Kansans place on issues will enable KState Research and Extension to focus education programs on the issues Kansans want
addressed.
Only a small number of our local residents have been asked to respond, so it is very
important that you complete this survey. Your participation is valued and will be kept
confidential and your answers not associated with your name.
You may complete the survey online at

your local K-State Research and Extension a paper copy. Your local office can also
provide a survey for Spanish speakers. Please complete and return the survey by

Your completion of this survey indicates your willingness to voluntarily participate in
this information gathering. If you have questions about the survey, please contact

Your response will help K-State Research and Extension design quality educational
programs for you and your community. Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Extension Board Chair
