 Report</a></b> revealed that while visits to history organizations increased considerably from their lows at the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, they still remained well below the levels reported before 2020. As the field continues to grapple with the ways
 the pandemic has affected staffing, funding, and other areas of institutional operations—and as fraught conversations about the nature of history continue to animate public discourse—this survey offers an important mechanism for assessing the impact of these
 shifts. <br>
<br>
In order to track ongoing changes and to appropriately represent the incredible diversity of the nation’s more than 21,000 history organizations, we need your help. Please take ten minutes to respond to this year’s survey, helping your colleagues and the field
 in the process.<o:p></o:p></p>
