The Next STEP: Survey

STEP Survey

The Next STEP newsletter provides empowering information about how to avoid everyday toxics and choose healthier alternatives. It's your friendly guide to earth-healthy living!

Produced by citizen volunteers, this newsletter implements the Sebastopol Toxics Education Program (STEP), an innovative City program to reduce toxic use and exposure in Sebastopol, thus creating a healthier and safer town for everyone.

This newsletter is sent bi-monthly to all City residents in their water bills. It's also available online, and you can sign up to receive email alerts when new issues are posted. (Just click here, Email List Signup.) For more about STEP, click here. Our main page with links to all these pages is www.healthyworld.org/STEP.

STEP FEEDBACK

We want your feedback on The Next STEP newsletter. So each year, we include a yellow STEP survey card in every City water bill, to make it easy for you to share your thoughts. It's ideal if you can respond using that card.

However, if you can't find this original card, you can download a replacement card by clicking here:

Just print this file out, fill it in, and return it in your water bill. Or mail to: Sebastopol Toxics Education Program (STEP), P. O. Box 1776, Sebastopol CA 95473.

As another option, we've also included the text below, for you to print and send in the same way.

* IMPORTANT: If you respond by either of these alternative methods, it's ideal if you can please write "I am a Sebastopol resident" and include your name and address, so that your vote will count in the survey.

Thank you for your participation and assistance in creating The Next STEP newsletter as a community resource that serves local needs.
