a. Residents of Richmond who are 18 or older for the phone survey

b. We will have focus groups for specific populations, including immigrants, parents with children in childcare or needing childcare, and youth.

The information will be analyzed and compiled into a report and shared with City Council, Staff, and community members. The City is intending to hold a public forum to share the results with the residents.
