Laudato Si Survey - Year Two

Last year during the Season of Creation, we asked you to fill out a survey to see what we as a province were doing that already addressed the seven Laudato Si' goals. Once again we are asking you to take the survey This will help us see how our situation has changed over the year and it will help us formulate objectives for year two.
