Why take this survey?

Investing in communities is how we make them strong, healthy, and safe.

With Philadelphia facing one of its most violent years in recent history, it’s painfully clear that our investments are misdirected. Every year, Philadelphia has given more and more funds to policing and less and less funds to resources that address the root causes of violence. It hasn’t made our communities any safer.We have to do something different. 

With this community survey, we’re gathering input from hundreds of community members to tell our city leaders which important programs and services need more investment for a safer Philadelphia.

Your input is powerful – powerful enough to transform Philadelphia from a place where safety is a broken promise, to a place where there is safety that we can feel.

Help us make Philadelphia a safer, healthier, and more vibrant city.
