[HistoricCemeterieslistserv] Action Requested – Oregon Heritage Vitality Survey

[GILL Kuri * OPRD]

Hello historic cemetery preservationists!

I just wanted to send out a special request from the Oregon Heritage Commission to fill out this critical survey. We want to be sure to have all of Oregon’s heritage interests represented in this study which includes the important work all of you do in historic cemeteries.

If you have any questions, you can email me directly at katie.henry at oprd.oregon.gov<mailto:katie.henry at oprd.oregon.gov> or call me at 503-877-8834.

Thank you in advance for your participation!

Action Requested – Oregon Heritage Vitality Survey
The Oregon Heritage Commission is requesting that all those engaged with heritage preservation related work in Oregon please take the 2024 Oregon Heritage Vitality Study survey<https://oregon.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6fG1c61ZwGuyzMq> now open through Feb. 2.

The goal of this study is to better understand the current state of Oregon’s heritage sector and to help the Oregon Heritage Commission and statewide partners and entities target solutions – such as specific policies and resources — for sustaining and boosting heritage-related work in Oregon.

We need your help! Please take about 30 minutes to share information about your organization’s operations and concerns. Your survey response is critical to the success of this project: the more information we have, the better we can develop and target solutions for supporting Oregon’s heritage sector over the next 10 years.

Please complete the survey by Friday, February 2. Survey takers will then be entered into a drawing to win free registration for the 2024 Oregon Heritage Conference<https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/oh/pages/heritageconference.aspx> this April in Forest Grove!
Click here<https://oregon.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6fG1c61ZwGuyzMq> to start the survey!

If you prefer a paper copy of the survey to be mailed to you, please contact Katie.Henry at oprd.oregon.gov<mailto:Katie.Henry at oprd.oregon.gov> or call 503-877-8834.
Thank you in advance for helping to make this effort a success!

Additional Survey Background:
This study is an update to the 2011 Heritage Vitality Study which resulted in identifying issues impacting heritage preservation work across the state and made recommendations that led to focused initiatives and technical assistance.

The 2024 Oregon Heritage Vitality Study is a partnership between Oregon Heritage and the University of Oregon’s Institute for Policy Research and Engagement.
