As part of our ongoing work to better understand the needs of our community, Stratford Cares invited candidates for Mayor and City Council to complete a community questionnaire.
Every candidate was provided with the same questions and the same opportunity to participate. The questionnaire focuses on homelessness, housing instability, mental health, community supports and other challenges affecting Stratford residents. The responses help Stratford Cares better understand where there may be gaps in services, resources and supports within our community, and where we may be able to help through future initiatives, partnerships or community advocacy.
Candidate responses are being shared in the form in which they were submitted so residents can read and consider each candidate's perspectives for themselves.
About This Questionnaire
Stratford Cares is sharing these responses as a community information resource. All participating candidates were provided with the same questions and the same opportunity to respond. Stratford Cares does not rank, score, recommend or endorse candidates. Responses represent the views of the individual candidates and are being shared for residents to read and consider for themselves.
Candidate responses will be added here as they are received. Please check back soon.
Thank You to Participating Candidates
We sincerely appreciate the time and thought candidates have put into sharing their perspectives with Stratford Cares and our community.
Hearing directly from candidates, alongside the experiences being shared with us by residents, helps Stratford Cares develop a better understanding of our community's needs and where further attention may be needed.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to participate in this community conversation.
