“We are all in this together, but we all have unique experiences. The RSF community survey will help identify the top issues collectively, and provides an opportunity for additional comments and ideas,” said Stephens.
Redmond’s Spirit Foundation’s mission is: Investing in programs, projects, practices and initiatives that create and serve a robust, inclusive and thriving family friendly community.
