By: FEDweek StaffThe Army wants to know how happy – or unhappy – soldiers and their families are with their living conditions. Beginning this month, the survey is reaching out to more than 200,000 tenants who live in housing that is either wholly owned by the Army, leased by the government, or serves as permanent-party unaccompanied residences.
“Investing in housing improvements that provide safe, secure, quality housing is important for our soldiers and their families,” said Lt. Gen. David Wilson, Deputy Chief of Staff for G-9. “This survey is an important tool for the Army to understand their needs to provide the best housing possible and enable our focus on warfighting.”
Participation in the survey – being conducted by CEL Associates – is voluntary, and will be available online for 60 days. The hope is housing residents fill it out as soon as they receive the link by email. The results will be used to address deficiencies, improve communication with residents, and determine which areas of community need would require the most attention.
“This survey, and our continued housing improvement efforts, highlight our continued commitment to the health and welfare of our soldiers and their families, which we know directly affects Army readiness,” Wilson said.
