A new survey designed by University of Wyoming Extension and the Cent$ible Nutrition Program to better understand how Wyomingites gather information is open for residents to share their experiences.
“We are a rural state, so having accurate information about how populations in rural states engage with media and social media is hard to find from national groups,” Kali McCrackin Goodenough, CNP marketing coordinator, said.
According to McCrackin Goodenough, the survey is completely anonymous. Consent form and contact information will be kept separate from results, which will be used to explore trends across Wyoming.
Those who complete the survey will receive a four-in-one kitchen tool as a thank-you. The survey requires approximately 20 minutes to complete and can be found here.
